Friday 3rd


Not too much to report so far as we are still in transit. It seems we are doing the route in the opposite direction to what I have been saying, ie we are going from Port Elizabeth to Durban....it makes no difference to me.

There are 84 riders in this group, they are very easy to spot as they are either in biking gear or have extremely large bags. I chose the latter approach as MX boots are not the most comfortable foot ware for flying. No sign of royalty as yet.

We are now in Johannesburg with 4 hours to kill till the flight to Port Elizabeth where we will be briefed and collect our bikes.

I cannot wait for tomorrow when we set off for real.

Clearly the traveling and waiting around is taking it's toll.
