I think us old overlanders should reflect about the recent tragedy in Kenya. Of course our sympathies go to the families of the bereaved, but those who died, who were in our age group, should also be respected as amongst us.

As for the poor driver, many of us can think, "there but for the grace of God, go I". I remember the Zoji La, on the way to Ladakh, and looking down thousands of metres and seeing buses and trucks from that same road way down there.

The Asian overland has been stuffed up beyond belief, I'd say gone for the rest of our lives at least, but the spirit still lives and all power to it.
