We meet Gurkan Genc

We stopped today at a farm stall next to the road to close up our vents of our Rally3 suits. When we rolled past MountKenya‬ on its western side we had temperatures of 16 degrees Celsius. As we were busy with our vents a guy approached us out of nowhere. He is from Turkey and his name is Gurkan Genc. He cycles‬ around the ‪‎world, been on the ‪‎road for the last 4 ‪‎years‬, done 38000km so far, he is on his way to SouthAfrica‬. It makes us feel small on our #Zambesimotorrad ‪#‎GS1200LC‬ ‪#‎BMW‬‘s. Tomorrow morning we are up at 5h00 again, 4h00 South African time. We have a difficult off-road route we tackle tomorrow for #‎J9Foundation‬ . Desert like landscape, gravel, apparently rock, volcanic rock, sand and a lot of thick dust with a rocky base. I suppose our bikes will be tested to the limmits again. It seems that our biggest concern will be fuel‬ and ‪‎water‬. Can’t wait for this adventure!!! If our page is quiet for a day or two, it means we don’t have network coverage. Will keep you posted asap. Lekker slaap, KORTPAD
