Hi All

We have done just over 9000 km, but are stuck in Kampala!!!  On Sunday, while riding on a small bad gravel road between lake Edward and Murchison falls, a bicycle, with two on board, swerved directly into Sharon - and did a lot of damage to the front end.  Fortunately she is ok, bruised and battered,but ok!  The guy on the bike had a badly broken wrist, and the passenger a cut to the groin.
After much bureaucracy, a night camped at the police station, paying the family, we limped on, to Kampala.
Now waiting for prices on replacement parts, insurance, shipping costs, import duties etc.

Need a whole bunch of front end spares, main impact was on the headlight area, and side panels.

1150 gsa holding out well, no problems at all.  Heidi tyres doing well, both bikes front and back plenty left.

Busy working on visas for further north.
