Cycling East Africa: Things I've learned
http://cyclingea.blogspot.com/2010/12/things-ive-learned.html
A blog about my last few months living in Tanzania then cycling around east Africa going through Tanzania, Malawi, Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya. Sunday, December 26, 2010.

This is a list of the things she's currently suffering from (not the things she has suffered from and had fixed). Right pedal crank bent. Missing one front spoke. Mali and the Afgha...
