Meeting the challenge chapter three

This issue completes Andrea Box’ United People of Adventure Touratech ride in Madagascar. When we left Andrea last issue she was concerned about the riders’ deteriorating physical condition and some possible bad weather heading their way…

A boat had been organised to take us across the next section of our route as there was no road, and unfortunately it was unable to leave its port. The stormy seas and frequent downpours we’d seen from our beach camp with its endless views of the Indian Ocean were in fact the edge of tropical cyclone Fantala, and she looked to be headed in our direction.
