Left Nairobi in goodtime decided to send some stuff back to New Zealand including my solar panels my power demands arnen't quite as high due to not running my gopro all day and being more selective when I use it I can save even more power by having a cheap phone aswell ,also the panels attracted a bit of attention and were extra weight .Can't wait to have a good thrash out !Thinking of changing to some normal flat peddles instead of these spd's my theory is that it will be better for all round joint and muscle wear kind of like going from machine weights to tree weights anyway these peddles are making some creaking noises they have been great probably done17000km on them .Heading North around Mt Kenya tomorrow towards Isiolo where Florence from Child fund has organised for me to meet the third child that I have been sponsoring ,I just talked to her halt way through this blog and the family of Eyan are starting their journey to meet me tomorrow also - very cool! Apparently Some of the roads are pretty dodgy! So I appreciate their effort! So after the visit is the road to Moyale I'll write more about that subject when I get more information at Isiolo .

Hi Andrew,
ReplyDeleteTalked to Noel Smith today,he is off to Spain at the end of the month,he asked if you got his and Gregg's e-mails?
Incidentally if I tap on the above Strava site Safari doesn't recognise it as valid.I shall go to your Strava site by signing in.Hope it is all going well for you,back on the road.
Cheers,
Dad
Hi Andrew,
ReplyDeleteDid you take any photos with Florence? Love to see photos of your sponsor kids, they must be SO happy you care for them!
You are a champion & their hero!
