As Somaliland has little official recognition outside its borders (in Africa I think only in Ethiopia and Djibouti), the nation's flag isn't well known. However, inside of Somaliland it is hard not to come across the… https://www.instagram.com/p/B-rMtLQl-Bu/?igshid=doaue2ouxvf1 …

Hyena camp. I hardly camped at all during the three months I spent cycling in Ethiopia. That wasn't through fear of hyenas, but the difficulty and hassle of finding somewhere suitable, away from the curious young… https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Rp_XYFcS2/?igshid=171p9qfeu44h5 …

A peaceful roadside cafe/restaurant, easily visible from the road, and one where you can sit in view of your bicycle to rest for a while, is a relatively rare find in Ethiopia. At least this was my experience. I often rode right through crowded towns failing to find such a p…pic.twitter.com/QCeiSsgVrC

Bed for the night. I like to sleep close to my bicycle when cycle touring. Usually it stays on the floor of a room, but sometimes the floor is a more comfortable option than a bed bug-ridden bed, and the bike must be moved from the floor in order to create enough space to pi…pic.twitter.com/4oVNrdYxbI

Back on the road - or just reminiscing about life on the road. I'm still in Ethiopia, retrospectively, dealing with the brutal climbs, but sublime views that the country offers. Like this one, overlooking the green and fertile terraces of tef, Ethiopia's… https://ift.tt/39ZPZev pic.twitter.com/g1KLuO383u

A steep descent on a dirt track in northern Ethiopia. Faced with a wall of mountains ahead of me, the other side of which lay the road I needed to be on, I knew this would be another hard day on the road, yet one rewarded with some spectacular scenery.

Rolling through rural Ethiopia and enjoying some rare peace, until the group of children - who can be seen right in the middle of this picture beside the road, decided to accompany me for the next hour or so. As none threw stones or attempted to pull something from my bike, …pic.twitter.com/GYCGEkilvi

In an effort to find quieter roads in a densely populated country, I took this scenic detour around the western side of Lake Tana.

The Blue Nile Gorge provides some spectacular sweeping views and lung-busting sweaty switchbacks. From over 2500m in altitude down to the river at 1200m, it's a long climb back up again. Ethiopia is one of Africa's… https://www.instagram.com/p/B6DObp9ldX1/?igshid=xq87wl8wqs0m …

Anyone who has cycled through Ethiopia will probably consider it one of the most challenging countries they have cycled in, at least within Africa. And they probably won't be referring to the mountainous roads with steep inclines. Correct? Anyhow, Ethiop… https://ift.tt/2DBlgGB pic.twitter.com/tqGZ4Igdv2

The track disappeared at times as I rode north. In some places the sand was too soft and deep so I pushed the bike. What may once have been a principal route north towards Ethiopia, as demarcated on my map, was… https://www.instagram.com/p/B5dDfPZl2lu/?igshid=o9xe95bjyfls …

My deportation from South Sudan meant a 400km detour to reach Ethiopia. Hot, arid, and neglected by successive administrations, Turkana county in northern Kenya isn't an easy place to travel. Aside from tribal conflicts, roads are atrocious or non-existe… https://ift.tt/2oWRubJ pic.twitter.com/sG1dsfch3M

South Sudan has experienced little calm in the years since it became an independent nation in 2011, but in late 2015 what turned out to be a temporary peace agreement was signed between government forces and the opposition.

Looking back over the East African Rift Valley. A view worth climbing for, and a track that entirely avoided cycling into the urban mess of Nairobi. _

Camping in Masaai land between Nairobi and Mount Suswa (pictured behind). I'm usually hesitant to wild camp close to large cities, but Nairobi's urban sprawl doesn't extend too far westwards owing to an escarpment that forms the eastern border of the Gre… https://ift.tt/2Qok4zq pic.twitter.com/VERt8IqBze

The long stare. A short roadside rest amongst the green hills of western Kenya. Over 50,000km of service in Africa on this trusty steel steed. The engine has seen less use in recent years, but is due a return to longer term touring action in 2020.

The world's second largest fresh water lake has a shoreline length of almost 3500km, shared by Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda.
