Ethiopia
I recieved an email this week asking me to do some work in Ethiopia!
Anyone know much about the country? The war with Somali serperatist rebels and Ethiopia's past volatility suggest I should consider this decision carefully!

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?

How do you know Hoff? Ever been to Ethiopia? Might be just like Asia where they ride shitloads of motorbikes, albeit mostly postie type bikes. Suggest roads might have a tendency towards land mines or potholes though but you're fairly agile on a bike Marty, go for it I reckon

Re: Ethiopia
I think Hoff was more commenting on Marty's love of riding everywhere he goes and the fact that there is an ocean between Aus and Africa - hence "you can't ride there", you'd have to fly!mick_dundee wrote:hoffy wrote:you cant ride there...so no I wouldn't do it..
