Beautiful landscape. A series of small shopping centres mark the passage of distance and time. Road signs - "engage low gear", "flash flood danger" - remind you to take care.

I started riding motorcycles a bit over ten years ago. Hardly a month into riding, while I still held my provisional license, I got into my first accident near Sarit Centre...

Zambian immigration was polite but careful - one look at my physiognomy was enough to send me for extra checks! I was allowed in, though!

For SAKAYO and i, it would be the first fully tarmac stretch of road, 4hr.20min to Marafa from Diani, 190kms and back.... Making it 380kms covered in one day and 8hrs of riding. I started early(6.30am) to Nyali to meet up with Ralf. Mother nature decided to start making things exciting by introducing a slight shower and slippery tarmac. The ride to likoni from Diani was therefore very sketchy, what with trailers from Tanzania filling the road with spray and matatus in a hurry to overtake. The ferry crossing was uneventful and the ride to Nyali rather pleasant. The weather had dried out as i crossed thr ferry and it was going to be a beautiful sunny day. Om arriving at Ralf's place, we talked a while and had coffee, before leaving for Kilifi.

If you love the Northern frontier, and have a thing for open, wild un-mollested spaces, this is a must.

The bike assumes an upright sitting position which makes the bike really comfortable to ride even during long distance rides. As stated earlier I rode the bike for quite a long distance, but at the end of the ride, I wasn't fatigued at all.
