Johannesburg / Jozi / Egoli

Guy, aka The Shuttle Guy, collected me from the airport and we wrangled the bike box and gear box into his van.

My BnB is comfortable, well situated in the safer northern parts round Sandton and efficiently run by my host Ronel. After a few emails addressing my intended arrival, and here's how to get in, I was greeted by her in person and walked through the unit. No worries.

Got settled in and then started working on a proper sleep pattern.
The next morning an earlieish start involved an Uber into Rosebank with its large mall, several mobile services, and the starting terminus for the City sightseeing bus, a whole bucket of sites in a single day.
I jumped off at the Mandela Foundation site and started to deboard at the Apartheid museum, but closed on Tuesdays, bugger.
Back at Rosebank lunched at a corner Greek eatery, excellent, and then grabbed some supplies and resolved the missing phone data - from my original visit.
Dived into the gear box back at the bnb and sorted out some of the on bike logistics. Pretty good day 1.Läs mer
