More pictures from the Mt Kenya Bike Expedition

Everyone has arrived back home from Kenya now and is back into the swing of work, life etc and looking forward to a great ski season.  Most of the group met up last night (except for Dave who is up north flying helicopters) and exchanged photos, relived stories and discussed what the next adventure could be, it's going to be tough to top this one, though I have some tricks up my sleeve.  A big thanks to Tate and Kendra for the photos below.  There will be more to come in the next few days once I sort through Andy (resident photographer) and Dave's pics.
