In the latest of his adventure motorcycle series, author and rider Robert Wicks brings together a collection of classic overland routes, spanning all seven continents. In this extract we join contributor and seasoned ABR Craig Carey-Clinch as he rides to Guinea-Bissau, West Africa…
In 2005 I had what would be for many people the adventure of a lifetime when I rode from London to the Gambia in West Africa with friends. We crossed the Sahara Desert, experiencing the wonders and beauty of Africa as well as riding some of the best routes on offer anywhere. Three years later we headed back to West Africa to research a GlobeBusters’ expedition. This time we planned to push further southwards, to unknown Guinea-Bissau.
