A good ride-out to ride Wheatwhacker.......not too expensive and a good introduction to Africa for sure ....
(best way to do it of course is to go with an Irishman who'll do nothing but slag you with good banter and craic,he says knowingly lol)....
We broke the last American we went with lol
Seriously though....go for it and profit from it when you can.....if you need a place to stay in France en route ping me ....
