The group left at the end of August and is taking a route from JHB to London that roughly mimics the route an F16 would take. Straight Up. The four bikes are completely self-sufficient, carrying their own fuel, sleeping kits and of course the pizzas in that freezer. The route will see the team travel through eastern Botswana, the length of Zambia and then into Tanzania. Kenya next and then onto the Ethiopian highlands. From there the team head west into Sudan, doing their best to avoid (or ride over) the bandits in the region.
A short 18 hour ferry trip takes them into Egypt, and then once they get to Cairo they head east along the coast of northern Africa through Libya and into Tunisia. At Tunis they hop over the ocean in a ferry that drops them off in the home of pizza - Italy. In Italy Luigi will deliver a pizza to his 94 year old mother celebrating the 40th year since Luigi left his hometown of Fidenza. After that the team will cross the Italian Alps and push through to Paris, after which the next stop will be London and the pizza delivery.
