And without further ado. The finale…
When we got to the bridge, Jake stopped and grabbed the opportunity to take some pictures. The bridge was being repaired and there was a lot of people around. After taking some souvenir shots, we were getting more worried about the condition of Herc’s scooter. Although he had Tito with him, we wanted to be all together at this point. We then pushed further when Jake realized that he had Herc’s tire on his back and I had the hand pump that they may need to load up a little air to get them to the next vulcanizing shop. We then decided to stop and talk about what to do. We decided to send Stampedeblue back with the tire and the hand pump while me and Jake pushed towards our goal. After splitting up, we got to Bangui and a Flying V station welcomed us. I filled up my tank and left a message for the rest of the group with the gasoline girl. We had to push. We were getting behind schedule. (more…)
