This video is from my ride from Luska to Copperbelt which is Zambia's mining province. Once I reached Chingola, I joined the local riders for a weekend ride to Solwezi. At that time, I desperately needed to socialise a bit after all these weeks of being on my own. Thank you Copperbelt riders for this awesome catch up!

Aye, aye, aye
We're having a little bit of rain
Hopefully, not for too long
This road is quite crowded
It's
It's the road that goes all the way to Tanzania
But also along the way there's lots of mines
So
Yeah, lots of trucks
Now I get it why people say
They travel 100 kilometers for like two hours
On the bike is a little bit faster
🎵 Music 🎵
I thought I'll do like a little
Stop over for a little
Story
From the road
But as you see there's really not much happening
I think it's supposed to turn left here

I really feel like I'm on holidays or something
Nothing better after the ride, hey?

Copper belt
Yes
Thank you, keep the change
Another riding day today
I'm going to Copper Belt
Which is a mining region
I'm guessing full of copper
And finally, I detoured from
This main road full of tracks and
Corrugations
It was tiring to stay focused all the time
And then I had a few showers on the way, so
You really had to stay focused all the time
But this is a nice shortcut
I mean, the pavement maybe is not as good
But it's remote, it's quiet
It's just like
No one around
Except for the locals and
One track every now and then
It's nice
So now I'm heading to Kitwe
Which is like
60 kilometers away
Because you know what happened
Local riders contacted me
They've heard I'm coming up north
And they just contacted me and suggested
To join them for a little ride
Tomorrow, on the weekend
So I'm super excited about that
Because I'm so sick of being by myself all the time
And it's been months like this
So I'm slowly getting weird
So I really think I need to socialize with people
Especially riders, yes
So I'm looking forward to that
All right, let's keep going
All right, so I think there's someone here
Yeah, we're meeting at the shopping center
Because they are actually coming from
Different locations as well
I think I just saw bikes
