Are you still running the road tyres?, or are you saving to the nobblies until you get out of the desert? For those that don't know Edventure personally, he is mad, totally barking and I for one am very jealous of this adventure

Tim,
I'm still running the road tyres. I thought the old Conti Trail Attacks would have given up the ghost by now, they had done 4K before I started the trip. I've done 2.9K now since leaving the UK. The rear has squared off badly but I reckon it may just get me to Bamako which is 1500 klicks from here.

I'm having a rest day and thought I'd check out the air filter. There must have been half a cup of sand in the filter box! :eek
 
Thanks for sharing!

I have had a rien d'essence in Arabic, but very small beer compared to yours. Take care!
 
Ed, is it worth asking this wider audience for input /assistance with the shipping?
Have a good rest day. The James Bond Hi-tech stuff is still not playing properly from this end.
How are the boots holding up? I think Vines are going to get an order for a pair this weekend .
Ride safely.
