So now it is getting real as I finally got my visa after a 2 month wait. Was stressing big-time. Now start looking at all the kit as we only have one 80l bag for the 8 days. I have been looking at the lists, maps and videos and I am super excited. for more info and video’s check on the TP site below. Will keep you updated.

I have an earlier handicap start time due to my age.
We ride as solo riders – not in pairs like the Epic.
The route is not marked and we are required to do our own navigation with checkpoints.
There are no official food or water points so we have to be self sufficient every day. Where possible I will have to find some local shops for local sandwiches and fruit, especially on long days.
