On the 14000-mile solo motorcycle journey through Morocco Mauritania Mali and all the way to Cape Town across deserts and the toughest roads imaginable he met sporting legends and ministers peacekeepers and outlaws and countless people who shared their last morsel of food with him.Armed with little more than blind optimism he experienced a jaw-dropping ride.
