allowing us to visit the city centre, it
seemed that none of the traffic lights
were working in the city, amongst the
chaos we decided to ride down south
to Mulanji, where great mountain
ranges provide plenty of hiking trails.
The scenery is spectacular and was
well worth the visit.
The owner of our guesthouse told
us of a different route that we must
take instead of returning on the way
we had come. It turned out to be a
great ride through small villages and
some unsealed roads, we were incredibly
grateful for the tip.
The route provided a chance to
stop in a town called Zomba, famous
for the plateau that overlooks the
town and shares the same name.
Riding to the top we were afforded
the spectacular views which provided
a way of surveying the smaller roads
around the district; all to be ridden.
