  • This episode is about my return to AFRICA! I've returned to my beloved Honda CRF300RALLY "Alaska" after leaving her for 4 months in Benin and I am crossing the land border into Nigeria. There are tons of roadblocks in Nigeria, and some are more legit than others, and I am generally a bit wary of them because you never know what will happen..

Nigeria has had a lot of bad press for security but I must let you know it's not as it seems. nigeria may turn out to be your best African experience yet. If you're still in Nigeria and need any guidance or assistance, I'm here to help. Don't give more than necessary attaention to the talks of security threats. Nigeria is a safe place for tourists. I live in LAGOS , Nigeria and have travelled north, south east and west of Nigeria and still travel it till date. Welcome to Nigeria and have a blast.

    Great memories. I grew up in Nigeria. My father worked as a peadatrician at the Wesley Guild Hospital in Ilesha where he was part of a program researching measles. We received the first doses of the recently developed measles vaccine which was being tested at the hospital and in the surrounding communities. The only way to travel to Nigeria at the time was by freight steamer but by the time we left in 1961, BOAC was operating flights out of Kano to Europe. All the roads outside of Lagos were dirt and ony a few of the rivers were bridged. Hope you are able to enjoy the wonderful people and their brightly coloured clothes and your experience is not tainted by the security issues.

    We kijken er weer naar uit! Samen met mijn vrouw genieten we elke keer van je vlogs. Wat we ook zeer waarderen is de "reportages" en de toelichtingen die je maakt in de vlog's. Prachtig het beeld wat we van Afrika krijgen. Wat een verscheidenheid. Wat we af en toe ook prachtig vinden is de korte opmerkingen die je soms in het Nederlands maakt, als je verbaast bent of schrikt van iets. Ga zo door met het delen van je avonturen.

    Hi, there are some oils/grease that increases the efficiency around 12 to 14 % for engines and chains and some additives to keep petrol clean especially for carburetors and removing water. Used to have a 500 Triumph but heading towards 90 years old but love the virtual touring on TH-cam, great scenery. If I can find the brand of oils I let you know. You probably heard the slogan "Oils ain't Oils" well worth investing. Loved traveling on a Vespa from Hamburg to Bergen. Happy traveling. Brian
