Thanks to the guys at Radiowave! Abe and Karin were interviewed on air this morning and they loved the experience. We are hoping to get a copy somehow so that we can all listen to it.
There was no plan to do this blog before they left. The idea came to me after their first day and I could not reach them or their mothers for news and decided no no no, must find a way to get updates to everyone who is interested. The blog really developed a life of it's own and gave a lot of pleasure to many of us. Through Windhoek Pedal Power and the blog Radiowave got in touch and this was truly a highlight for them.
They got Peta's stamp of approval - this is what she mailed me "The radio interview was awesome- the kids sounded happy, intelligent, clear and to the point.. they are now on such a high they think they will trek to Morrocco!"
On the 20th of November 2011 my nephew and his girlfriend left Grahamstown on an epic bike ride to Windhoek. This ride covered more than 2000 km's, over three countries in 20 days. This is that story. Grahamstown, Bedford, Cradock, Middelburg, Hanover, Phillipstown, Orania, Hopetown, Kimberley, Warrenton, Vryburg, Ganyesa, Bray, Werda, Khakhea, Bulukubalo, Morwametsi, Kang, Thootsa, Buitepos, Gobabis, Witvlei, Seeis, Windhoek!
