Arusha to Dodoma

Another off road day with appalling road conditions but with our new shocks we were fine, but nursing a bit. All the time trying to remember they will be ok because we have the huge new yellow Australian bouncy springs.  We did all the time trials, but were hugely disappointed with our results, but hey ho, they are obviously trying to spread out the leaders. At the end of the world cup section we thought we had better stop to check out a bothersome noise only to find the axle had slipped ( shades of Mongolia) but it was only a rear subframe mounting bolt which had started to fall out! A quick mend on the side of the road and we were off again. Into Dodoma, which is apparently the capital of Tanzania but seems like a complete dump, to a strange 'resort style' hotel in mid winter.
