The sun came up at some point, it must have, it was up when we emerged from our respective abodes.
We breakfasted, fettled the bikes and Sid and Glenn rode into St Louis to do some messages, picking up a fine from a member of the local constabulary for speeding into the bargain. No speed gun or radar, just in the opinion of the cop.
The ZB shimmered under the mid day sun, Tossers lay were they fell.
Nothing really happened until late afternoon when a lone motor cycle rider arrived
His name was Nigel Swaby and he'd ridden up from Banjul that day after spending 3 months volunteering with Riders for Health, you can find more about him on his website Big Nose on Tour, a real character and able to give us lots of information on what was ahead of us on our trip.
His bike was pretty special as well
as was his method of parking when the sand was too soft for the side stand
Dave was in awe!!
We all had our evening meal together and Nigel fitted in easily with the group, he could talk bollox for England Lovely guy, check out his website it's worth a read.
We watched yet another stunning sunset together
and Gert added a Calum's Road sticker to the bars collection.
Tomorrow we headed south for our final day in Senegal, Gambia was approaching and the excitement was mounting, thanks to the wonders of alcohol though we managed a decent nights sleep.
