Finished the ride

After 400 odd kms, 3 nights camping under stars, many many street kids high fived along the route, great people met, fair bit of dancing all thrown in the week, we are now chilling out on a white sand palm tree lined beach. Apologies for not finishing blog every day but batteries were down on the old telephone. I’ll throw in a few anecdotes from the week. One memorable moment was meeting a guy on a converted mountain bike which he had put a small motorbike engine on which has a 200km range. Took a few pictures of it which I’ll post all in good time. We visited the faraja trust, a street kid centre, getting the orphans off the street into remedial care to prepare them for school. Quite a moving experience. HIV is down in the area, which shows education centre is also working. Although malaria is rife throughout the slum. Everyone whom has sponsored me has contributed to helping this forgotten part of the world get better social and medical care. We had a fun game of football with the kids, it was a draw at fulltime, onto penalties with them taking the cup on 4-3. Another classic English defeat, good times though.
