23.10.15 - Alexandria | Giza

Yesterday didn`t wrote, just put a photo on Facebook during the launching ceremony of the Cross Egypt Challenge.What a party, so much emotion, so many people, so many fans. Once again the Cross Egypt Challenge organization  made a fantastic job to present the bikers of the 5th edition. The venue and the presentation to the people of Alexandria worthy it: pyrotechnic shows, music, media and many thousands of people.Me and the Egyptian adventurer Omar Mansour, were called to the stage to talk about the second participation in the Cross Egypt Challenge. What could he say ?! I love being here, people are very nice and in return for their sympathy, I offered my Nau helmet to the rally-raid organization.The rest of the day, except for a heated discussion with the front desk of Hilton Hotel, was enough common ground between various meetings and administrative checks.Today was the first step, connecting Alexandria to Giza. The rally route has changed because the events of the last month and, therefore, the steps will end in different destinations from those initially planned.The stage was straight with good tread, the green delta of the Nile, and as a "company" we had the motorcycle and scooter clubs either Alexandria and Cairo over the 240 km to give us moral support. I felt good!The trickiest part was the arrival in Cairo, in the middle of a sandstorm. First the sky became overcast and "asking for thunderstorm," then came the wind; the birds couldn`t fly, there was sand, paper, plastic, everything imaginable in the air.It was with this weather that we arrived at the Hilton Pyramides, near the three great pyramids. Fortunately subsided and I gave a dip in the pool.We have sense, and today, on the road, intensified, missed the third Musketeer - Dave Marshall - and our Juliet Jazmin. You are always with me, Drew and Chell.Right now I'm in the hotel lobby, in the middle of a wedding. Will can go dancing with the bride?
