The plan

So I've decided to ride a motorcycle from Germany to South Africa. I've got a bike, the necessary documents and some money.
In a couple of hours time I will finally start my big trip, riding through chilly and rainy Germany to Lille in Northern France, where I have a friend who will kindly offered me a place to sleep. From there it's on to Paris, through Southern France and via Spain and finally onto African soil - Morocco.
I will roughly follow the western coast line of Africa and arrive in Cape Town, South Africa some time in September from where me and my motorcycle will fly back to Germany.
I will update this blog along the way, letting you know where I am at the moment and posting pictures and texts.

Wish me luck and good weather,
Julian
