We got there at about 2pm - a bit later than maybe we would have as Ben had to change a tyre within spitting distance of the end (just over a km to go)!
We then celebrated with a beer (Becks for me, of course) before heading slightly north east to the nearest town - Portopalo, where we have been relaxing ever since with more cool beers safe in the knowledge that we don't have to clamber onto the bikes for any significant distance! BLISS!
It really has been a great trip - so many great memories, which i will go into further in my final update over the next week or so once i have had a little more time to reflect and a little less to drink!
Thanks to all those who have commented on the blog (once i finally sorted it out) - its been really good to know people are following our progress.
