"I am a 54 year old civil engineer from Halifax who has gone on several previous expeditions with Tour d'Afrique Ltd.   I must have enjoyed the experience because I keep coming back for more.  In 2008 I did the eastern section of the Orient Express, Budapest to Istanbul, along with two members of my local cycling club, and I want to complete it this year.  I'm looking forward to navigating the intricate back roads and Danube Bicycle Path, and I'm praying that we avoid the heavy rain that the group encountered last year at the outset of their trip.  My Bike Friday worked well in Eastern Europe last summer so I'm planning to bring it again, and hope a few others decide to do likewise."
