Riaan Manser has not only cycled around Africa on his bicycle but he has just returned from circumnavigating Madagascar unsupported and on his own.  He will be talking on his amazing adventures around  this unique island.  Not only was this a physically challenging expedition that involved numerous hair raising incidents, but it also experiences the amazing wildlife only found in Madagascar. 

Go here for a video link with Riaan

Riaan will have copies of his book available Around Africa on My Bicycle which tells the story of his circumnavigation of the continent on two wheels - an epic, 2 year, 36 000km trip. 

Please note that because of the expected big turnout to this event we are now in the rainbow room at the Johannesburg country club Auckland Park.  See the venue tab above for details (sorry no red button)
