Hello bikepacking friends!
I'm going on a trip through Africa from north to south starting next year in spring (the exact dates are not set till now).
I'm Daniela (32) from Austria, living in Vienna, and the trip is not about doing it the fastest way but also experiencing the countries on the route.
Until now I have not made any specific plans, so the input from whoever wants to join me is more than welcome. I know a woman who did a similar trip last year on her own, so I'm sure it is possible to be done!
Just send me a message, I'm really looking forward to hearing from you!
Daniela

Do you have any details regardumg this? And, are you thinking to do this tour? I am interested but not clear about logistics.
Hi Daniela,
Sent you a msg. Kindly check your inbox and revert.
Thanks
Hi!
I have the same idea!!
In the spring of '19 I will be without a home, job and future obligations, and I am thinking about cycling through Africa. I like to go without a fixed plan, on the small, adventurous roads, and stop wherever my heart desires to do so. I love camping, swims in lakes, roadside picnics, invitations by strangers, hikes... I did a 1,5 year trip before on my own, but I prefer to be together to share the fun, if it feels good for everybody.
Feel free to write me!

Hi Daniela my name is Nathan Kirk currently on a world Tour in Budapest at present. I left Ireland over six weeks ago and am travelling south east through hungry to Bucharest in romania. My route is not set in stone and am interested to here about your dates and travel plans. I'm hoping to be in south romania inside two weeks. Contemplating going east after or if I had company to push through Africa. I've allowed a few years for this trip and in no rush.

Hi Daniela!
I'm planning a cycle trip from Belgium to Tanzania, along the west coast of Africa. Starting in August and by november in Morocco. If your route would change along the west coast I would be up for that, still looking for people to join. I'm not using an engine to cross water or land or anything else so the west coast is easier for that. I'll cross the strait of gibraltar by rowboat in November.
good luck on the trip!
Hi to everybody
is someone traveling in africa between december-march?
Jelle I read your profile and the trip you are doing seems so cool :D
Hola Angel
I cycled the Nile last year from base to source
it was a fabulous ride
there is lots of cyclist doing C2C ,Cairo to Cape Town ,even there is a Whats up group
my advice is to start your ride in Jan and start north to south ,you got tail wind all the way and the weather much much cooler
Happy Cycling
