Here's a couple of pics I took at the painted rocks. The top one is technically better, I thought the exposure on the second wasn't quite right.

How white are those legs? They make me look tanned!
Keep it up Steptoe, it's releiving the frustration of trying to put music to my video.

They look like wax - lucky for him they didn't melt.
Is Steptoe closely related to James May?

I visited the rocks with Tim and I couldn't get excited about the blue rocks in truth: the french totty and the gazelle that ran across in front the bikes as we were leaving the blue boulder were much more interesting
Ok I don't mind looking stupid......Why would anyone bother to paint a pile of rocks blue in Africa?

It was done more than 20 years ago by a Belgian artist in conjunction with the local sapeurs pompiers (fire brigade) who hosed 18 tons of paint over the rocks.

So the back wheel didn't fall off and the drive shaft didn't snap this time then?
Nope, no problems with either of these. Did replace the big ball joint on the rear suspension in Nairobi and the UJ off the rear diff at Uppington in SA, plus the panhard rod bushes in the middle of Zaire.
Other than that, it was own fault stuff like a winscreen in Burkina Faso and a second hand fuel tank in Niger.
Rest was just routine service stuff, oil & filters. Good as gold !

Devon was referring to our trip last year, when he was in the landrover and the wheel fell off and the hub collapsed

The last time I saw that Landy it had a really ugly crew on it.
Where was Bill on this trip
Looks like another good trip organised by the crew I must get round to joining you on one of them.

Oh dear, what stuff and nonsense.
Looking for a specific picture which i thought was in here and i've only just notice i didn't finished the ride/drive report
Oh well, i've forgotten all that happened apart from a kitten getting squashed under a slowly driven car and the needless cruelty of grown men. As they said at the time "Alah Ahkbar" ( which on this occasion should translate to "what a bunch of morrocan c*nts") .

It had all the makings of a 'finding my mojo' matching thread as well
Have you come to terms with putting that kitten in the middle of the road yet or do you still have sleepless nights about it??
