Enduro Africa 2007

Simon Stokes is going to ride a motorbike 2,500km across Africa, to raise money for *Riders for Health* charity. The donations will provide a motorbike and training for the charity that distributes aid and medicine to Africa's most difficult areas to reach. Each motorbike saves an estimated 20,000 lives. This blog is a commentary of my epic journey to (and then through) Africa, for all the right reasons...

Cambodia is the maddest place ... ever

Please donate ---- > >

I've just come back from a 'dress' rehearsal, practice run bike trip through Cambodia. And that place is as mad as bag of frogs. I will put up a longer post over Christmas, but basically we (me, TC and 4 friends) did 500 miles over 6 days, off road through jungles, hils, rivers and trails. It was epic. I'm sure it's a beautiful country, I just didn't see much of it cos I was hanging on to a screaming 2-stroke beast that was charging through sandy, rocky, muddy trails a\t 4o miles an hour.

There only have 2 rules in Cambodia:
Rule 1: No headlights during the day (unless you're immportant.. and if you have to ask...)
Rule 2: No other rules!

Here's an example of a ferry. And this was the deluxe version. Anyway, enough of that and more later.

Please dig deep for the great cause that is Riders for Health.
