Jackie’s Pedalling Progress

[JohnS]

Absolute admiration for you Jackie! Keep up the good work girl!

[Geordie Stu]

Stu, didn't you say you wanted to keep the saddle after they finished? ;D ;D ;D

emm Did I say that. Do you have evidence of me saying such a thing. Or is this fabrication? :

[Jacde]

Oh my goodness me, ;D how many pages???
Just reached civilisation, wifi I can use!
Day 4 over and done with last days cycling tomorrow, think it's a fairly normal get up time i.e. not 5 in the morning!
Think it's 40km to Lake Victoria and our finish line.
Will keep updating Gerry and will catch you all soon.

Should have updated you before Jackie finished todays ride, but this is most of this mornings text in full !


Day 4: Dear Diary, after a night in the most grotty hotel on this continent (now called Satan’s Armpit) very little sleep and only having a mashed banana sandwich for breakfast because the event team were worried we’d be ill if we ate the cooked breakfast :-/ We are cycling 95km today. Because there has been so much rain we weren’t able to cycle down the river bed so it’s all on the road today.

The banana sandwich was the highlight of the last 12 hours. The hotel was truly awful, black mould, fungi and slugs, and that was just the bedrooms, Lord knows what the kitchen was like !

So may children to wave to and call “Jambo” to lol. Not an insult, it’s “hello”
I’m waving so much I feel like royalty, though I feel bad when there’s a group of kids calling to you on a downhill stretch and I can’t take my hands off the handle bars to wave - way to risky

I told her I'd try shouting "Jambo" to the next gang of black youth's I see in Trowbridge on a Saturday night - it's good to be friendly
