My best investment.. and immediatly huge road trip!































Achat d'une splendide moto 4 vitesses, 100cm³, poignets roses..
Grosse attraction pour les gamins du quartier.

I paid 230.000 FCFA for the machine. And trust me: it's definitely not a wise investment, at least financially speaking. But it provides so much fun, also for the kids around!






Samedi 23h.. aprés 6 crevaisons, réparées avec du matos chinois, nous voilà sur le départ pour Maty. En temps normal, 1h de route. Pour nous: 3h30, pour cause de barages militaires, problèmes de frein, de carburateur, de chute... bref, tout une aventure!







After many mecanical problems, we finally take the road at 11pm.. Even the Army couldn't stop us (one of us had a diplomatic registration plate, which undeniably helps). Mechanic problems slowed us down, but we ultimately reached our destination at 2:30am.











Nice, Nice!












































Sur les pistes à fond en première, cad à 20km/h (je sais on est des fous)




Don't be impressed, we were so slow! But on the pic it seems we are crazy drivers in the wild..
