Desert adventure

I lost sight off Haukur for several hours. Finally, around 1:00 a.m. he showed up at his seat.

It seems that for the last 2 hours, Haukur had been standing at the ready to move the bike into the hold. In doing so, the motorcycle battery went dead, which he realised immediately when they finally told him he could move the bike into the hold. Not able to start the bike, he had to push the motorcycle up the ramp with no help from the motor nor crew members. Three or four trucks closed him into the niche where our motorcycle was. He was trapped in the hold.

Haukur finished battening down the bike and used his booster power bank to charge the motorcycle's battery then began to maneuver his way through the hold, crawling over, under and around the trucks until he found a window where someone finally saw him.

If you have ever watched a ship being loaded, then you know it is chaotic at best. Thank God, everything worked out in the end. 🙏🏻

NOTE: You'll need to have 4 straps with you to tie down your bikes.Read more
