Know Egypt ~ Sherif Louis’ Tour ~ President Mubarak Resigns 2
I think this is a cycling tour like no other. Sherif Louis is a brave man to have endured what he has and continued to ride. He says he has unforgettable memories of this revolution and those from people he encountered as he closed on Cairo. I wonder what his thoughts are now that the people’s revolution has had its desired effect. He will comment here soon. Thanks my friend and stay safe. –jim |
Know Egypt ~ Sherif Louis’ Tour amid protest ~ through Day30 7
We have been peeking in on Sherif’s cycling tour through Egypt. My last article was 01/12 [through Day11]. Sherif last posted to his blog 01/21, where he continues to give very colorful descriptions of the Egyptian countryside and its people. He also uploaded many more pictures to his photo gallery [through Day21] and his last facebook entry was also 01/21, with a comment 01/27.
He has not yet posted his experiences through Day30. With the protest and the response of the government, I wonder what affect these circumstances are having on Sherif’s cycling tour. Boy, did he pick a time to be out-and-about Egypt.
We trust all is well with him and that he will give us an update soon. I know this is a cycling experience that he will never forget. The best my friend and be safe. –jim
