We wound up at the wrong border from Malawi to Moz even though we had asked the cops for directions and had to backtrack and spend another night in Blantyre, no great problem as its quite a chilled out place .
The border crossing into Mozambique is pretty easy as far as Africa borders go but its as if somebody turned the heating up its seriously hot here and its the rainy season which in reality means it rains in the afternoons so a morning ride is adviseable.
we came back to the coast at Vilanculos where we found a cheap backpacker lodge and after a beer I discovered I had a puncture in the rear tyre, oh well that tube was repaired in Senegal so it lasted quite well.
Our tyres on both bikes are really knackered and we were trying to make it to Durban to get new ones but we have met some guys here who have told us about a road through Swaziland mountains that is supposed to be special and there is a bike shop in Swaziland that will do tyres and as its more or less on the way to Durban we may as well ride it.
