No entry to tangarine park, an no wildlife on road close to park. On tar again caught a slow truck on te uphill and sat some awesome slip for about 20km, much faster than normal. Could see the locals eyeing this manouver, watch out for the sprinters from magugu area in few years.
Made it just past Babati and found nice secluded camp spot, and just in time. 15 minutes later and could have left the waterbottle wash. Eventually thundr and rain got quite interesting, matras felt like a waterbed, and sleeping next to my bike as a lightning rod. Well didn't wash away although today might have been better if did mud was something else.
Met awesome old man. If all the trucks an busses wasn't sruck behind me would have been tempted to get on. Eventually made it to Kondoa, only covered about 75km today. Mentally was extremely taxing though, had lot of negatice thoughts, doubts and questions...might be the mefliam. Tmrw hopefully get close to Dodoma.
