I leave Brussels on 30 septembre 2017, cycling towards Marseille in the south of France to embark on a container ship sailing to the port of Alexandria, in Egypt.
There are three challenges ahead of me :
1. the fact that I am leaving Brussels one month later than expected ;
2. I have to take delivery of a trailer specially produced for Bike with Diabetes, in Alforja, near Barcelona, which is way off my route towards Marseille ;
3. the imperative need to reach Egypt as fast as possible in order to be able to cycle across the desert and reach Ethiopia before the end of the winter season.
