Default Wild Bill's African Antics

Hiya folks

It's been a while since I've posted anything, but I thought I'd better post something before I leave.

As some of you are aware I'm leaving on a little trip... Well it's not actually that little. I'm undertaking an unsupported solo motorcycle expedition, anticlockwise around the African continent. On my journey I'll be travelling through over thirty countries and getting up to... Well who knows, that's the point of the trip, to just go and see what happens.

Please check out the website www.africanantics.com I'm planning on posting regular updates, but we'll see how many internet cafes there are in Africa!!!

One final thing I'd like to say before I head off into the heart of darkness is that while I'm going off on this trip I'm trying to raise some money for charity. My charity of choice is the Devon Air Ambulance Trust. As some of you will know they helped me out when I had a bike accident eariler in the year.

If you would like to donate some money all you have to do is go to www.africanantics.com and click on the Devon Air Ambulance Trust logo at the top of the page. This will take you off to my Just Giving page where you can donate. So far I've raised £80 and I hope to raise a lot more than that.

So take care out there on the road folks and I'll see you all when I get back.

Bill
