Photos from the Fouta Djalon, Guinea

Photos of the Gambia, Senegal and the Guinea’s

Here’s a selection of photos from the last few weeks cycling through the Gambia, Senegal, Guinea Bissau and Guinea.

Made it into Nouadhibou in Mauritania, having crossed the Western Sahara in little more than six days. It was good, but time for a break…. There’s more desert where I’m headed!

Photos from the Sahara, Morocco and Western Sahara

Photos from the last few days. Cycling from Guelmim, the gateway to the Sahara; to Laayoune, the first major town in the disputed Western Sahara which has been well and truly claimed by Morocco.
