onherbike 19:24 May 2021

EDITORIAL SUMMARY

In Lusaka, Zambia, this episode of an ongoing motorcycle journey brings a social visit together with practical work on the bike. The film also introduces two travellers who met on the road in Africa and chose to continue overlanding together.

About this film

Episode 107 in the Africa, Round The World series follows onherbike’s solo journey around the world, begun in April 2017 on a BMW F800GS. The description calls Zambia the most social country of the trip so far during the pandemic. In Lusaka, the rider catches up with friends Elena and Robert, then turns to the condition of her own motorcycle, Chillie. The episode’s two strands are a meeting with fellow overlanders and a visit inside ProTech workshop, where the bike receives attention for a mechanical issue.

The journey

The setting is Lusaka, where Elena and Robert share a connection formed on the road in Africa and a decision to overland across the continent together. The film then goes inside ProTech workshop as Chillie receives necessary care, including a repair to the leaking forks. These details place the episode within a continuing Africa journey while giving space to both the people encountered along the way and the upkeep that accompanies motorcycle travel. The account stays close to this city visit and workshop stop rather than tracing a longer route.

What to expect

  • A Lusaka catch-up with fellow overlanders Elena and Robert
  • A look inside ProTech workshop
  • Fork repairs for Chillie
