Day 62, 6319km, Ouro Sogul, Senegal
I stopped things short today after the usual punctures to carry out some running repairs and address the unpleasant smell following me around. Thanks to some innovative african mechanical skills involving, much to my horror, a forcefully used screw driver, my thick tyre will work for the time being with the chinese inners, so hopefully tomorrow I can make some real progress towards World Cup glory!
