As we venture deeper into the wilderness, we encounter the surreal Deadvlei, a salt pan dotted with centuries-old petrified trees. The stark contrast between the bleached white landscape and the skeletal remains of trees creates a haunting yet awe-inspiring sight.
Leaving Namibia behind, we pedal into the vast Kalahari Desert, which stretches across Botswana and parts of Namibia. This unforgiving environment is characterized by endless stretches of sand, sparse vegetation, and shimmering mirages.
Jiri's determination and resilience are tested as he navigates the unforgiving terrain. Along the way, we encounter nomadic tribes who have adapted to the harsh conditions of the desert, showcasing their resilience and cultural traditions.
From the scorching sands of the desert, we ascend to the mountainous kingdom of Lesotho. Sani Pass, a winding gravel road, presents a formidable challenge for cyclists, requiring both physical endurance and technical skill.
As we climb the formidable pass, we are rewarded with breathtaking views of the surrounding Drakensberg Mountains. The winding road hugs sheer cliffs, providing glimpses into deep valleys and cascading waterfalls.
Our cycling journey concludes in the Cape Winelands of South Africa, a region renowned for its rolling hills, lush vineyards, and picturesque towns. We pedal through idyllic countryside, where rows of vines stretch towards the horizon and the scent of ripening grapes fills the air.
Along the way, we stop at quaint wineries, where we can sample the region's renowned wines and learn about the history and traditions of winemaking in South Africa.
Throughout our journey, Jiri shares his invaluable tips for cycling in Southern Africa, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience:
- Plan your route carefully: Research the terrain and weather conditions to choose a suitable route that matches your skill level and fitness.
