I am trying so think hard of a headline for this thread, I have to be very quick as its a free 20 minutes and its taken me 5 of that working out this APPLE Mac.

Anyhow, I left England at 18.00 hrs thats 6pm Heathrow to Ciaro, The flight with British Airways was verygood nothing like what Im used too EasyJet.

Free drinks and the meal was just wonderfull, I thought aircraft food normally rubbish, the lady in front seat in front of me kicked offf with the stwardesses, as she must have ordered a BIG SEAT or something.

She was as my dear father used to say acomadation arft, she had a massive arse, real wide it tock up a seat and a half, she had too be pushed into it, the staff had to removed the arm rest and give her a seat belt extention.

The guy sat next too her no relation only had half a seat, so to piss her off he kept getting up for a pee, meaning she had to be reprised out of the seat, then she had to get up again a few minutes later.

This went on all througt the 4 hour flight to mine and other amusment. we were met at the airport by a film camera man and had to give a interwiew staight out of walking out of the terminal, I am with an nother English man from Jersey, Own Lewis he has a Harley Dealership over there
 
I am so glad too see what I posted last night there as my 20 mins ran out, after about another half a paragrahf.

So I arrived at the hotel after the most scarest rides in a car, 3 /4 lanes of cars changing lanes all the time with all the cars driving within a foot of each other.

We checked in, unloaded bags, Owen and I sat talking for 20 minutes untill about 1pm and then off I went out, walking about Cario at 2am - 4.30am is something I find hard to explain.

I was on my guard clutching my man bag and holding my watch hand deep in my pocket, with the city well alert alive and in a changed mode since we drove in a hour ago
 
Is this a ride report or wot?

Its started off really well with positive descriptions of your fellow female passenger...

Now.. about those airheads.

Nothing changed there then.
Do they still have working traffic lights ?
And do all the drivers still completely ignore them ?
And do they still take the shortest route round roundabouts ?
Dangerous place.
And try and avoid crossing any big roads on foot.
Otherwise, enjoy.
 
bACK ON THE managers apple p.c, its 6.30am here and I am first down for the 7 am start, last night we had the normally team meal, and I managed to slid off as I wanted to send a update too you lot.

Managed about 4 paraghfs and the p.c logged out, tonight Im going to send each paraghf as so not to lose it, The Egypt Challenge is in its 2nd year and run by a realy excited group of young wil in their 30s Egyptian scooter adventurers.
