On the road again. We’ll see if we can get more than 40kms before this wheel implodes too. #fb
Bikes vs Sierra Leone roads #3 tomorrow – Huw’s overhauled the hub & built a a(nother) wheel. Hopefully, next update won’t be about bikes :)
Bike-fixing. Another broken wheel stranded us in a (lovely) village til Huw managed to mend a car (with cardboard) to get us to a town.
A good day: the harmattan started blowing, ending the sweaty season, & we finally left the Freetown peninsula and reached rural Sierra Leone

Blown away by kindness today. Met someone who sorted out fixing our mangled bike, wined/dined us and took us swimming in waterfalls to boot.
Day 2 of new cycling regime: Huw’s bike spontaneously implodes. Twisted frame, broken hub, rim and derailler. Pondering next move…
