For those of you that prefer reading I have posted the ride report of the trip on this forum at https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=42723.0 The idea to film it was really driven by Curt and was borne out of our belief that the only way our granchildren will know we are such cool...

So there you have it.  If you liked that you'll enjoy the DVD.  The idea to film it was really driven by Curt and was borne out of our belief that the only way our granchildren will know we are such cool grandparents is if we have irrefutable evidence that we did a once-in-a-life-time trip...

The reason it's unofficial is because the guys at Guinness World Records reckon that delivering a pizza on a motorbike from Johannesburg to London, via deepest darkest Africa, over 39 days, is… well the same as getting on a business class plane seat and flying 16000km while your pizza sits cool...

London - Final Post Wednesday, 14th November 2007 I am writing to complete the final task given to the chronicler of the Epic Scooters Pizza Delivery. This report puts a final and well deserved cross over the city of London, on our web site map. More than 2 weeks have passed since our...

Ghoa Tsion to Bahir Dar, Western Ethiopia Friday, 14th September 2007 'You mother f...!!!' The thick Italian accent crackled over the bike to bike radio giving Luigi's feelings away. The object of the 'Godfather's' affections was an Ethiopian boy still dancing and taunting in our rear view...

Yirga Cheffe to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Wednesday, 12th September 2007 Our plans to start the day at first light in a push for Addis had been inspired by an apparent deal with DHL to interrupt the public holiday and open their office for us at 08H00 for us to collect our shock absorbers. This...

This was at first our meeting and negoating room and once that part had been sorted out it became our hotel room until the goat truck arrived.... Luigi always seems to get the best attention in Africa.  Age is invaluable - well actually its value was one goat truck - to be exact. Having not...

This was the Oasis that Wallace owned in Dodoma.  He is an ex-policeman that was given this concession in Capital park which has statue of Nyerere at it;s centre.  personally I think the GS's give it the sparkle it lacked... Oh yes... we met the ex-president of Zambia during one of our...

Ever heard of a bad idea after 6 beers?  Well, what started as a planned trip through Europe with my mate Curt, ended in a planned 39 day mad dash through Africa from Johannesburg to London.  Oh yes… with a 30kg offroad freezer strapped to my GS adventure.  With four pizzas inside them. ...
