A four-month cycling trip from tip to tail of Africa - in the
company of like-minded individuals, accompanied by a support team -
was the perfect way for Beryl and Bernie Doiron to marry their joy
of cycling with their love of travel and to escape the Canadian
winter. Departing Cairo with its pyramids, they cycled through
ancient Egypt, the deserts of Sudan, the mountains of Ethiopia, the
lush rolling hills of Tanzania, Malawi, and Zambia, the beautiful
terrain of Botswana and Namibia and along the Atlantic Ocean of
South Africa to Cape Town: a fifth of the journey on clay,
washboard, rock, sand, and dusty roads. It all made January to May
2008 a memorable summer: 10,000km down roads less travelled, time
to interact with some of the world's poorest people, pitching tents
in desert and on bush ground and eating local foods. Again and
again, the authors were struck by the welcoming faces of people
with very few of life's amenities, who appear to live in peace and
harmony with their surroundings. In small village and countryside,
the people and lifestyle also triggered memories of early
childhood, growing up on a family farm and nearby fishing village
in Prince Edward Island, Canada.
