Yep, as I said, top marks for effort it must've been a right nightmare getting that thing plus all his kit through some of that terrain. I wonder how he kept the thing in tyres and I don't mean wear so much, more punctures. It only takes a tear to lunch a tyre and I can't see too many places in the middle of Africa or wherever stocking them. Was he solo or was there some kind of support?
