Tour d'Afrique - half way rest stop, Iringa to Lilongwe

Iringa to Chitimba Beach

The team

The Lonely Planet team before the Iringa start - me, Fiona Siseman, Rana Freedman and Martin Heng. Rana and Martin rode the last stage and decided to continue on this one as well.

I’m half way through my Iringa (Tanzania) to Lilongwe (Malawi) ride on the Tour d’Afrique. Lonely Planet have entered two relay teams to ride this Cairo (Egypt) to Cape Town (South Africa) four month, 12,000 km safari. Our stages are about two weeks each (so there are 16 of us from Lonely Planet in total) and my stage is Number 5, 1192km in 10 days riding with one rest day at Chitimba Beach on Lake Malawi.
