Day 25 of the Old Legs Silverback Tour - From  Kigoma to Makere, somewhere near the Burundi border. I am blogging to you from  a police station, complete with heavily armed policemen, somewhere near the Burundi border.  Today’s ride was epic, one I will remember for years. Unfortunately, epic doesn’t always translate into fun. 

In the harshest reminder that Africa is more than just forever views, game reserves and sunsets with Ice cold drinks on white sand beaches, we were able to blunder into an area with one million plus desperate refugees, all looking to flee the despair and hopelessness of which ever of Africa’s shit-hole failed states they hail from. In just 5 days, we have been able to ride from heaven to hell.
