South African tourmanager Ulrich Hoffmann writes: 'After the recent MC tour when I dropped Chris & Tom off to head on to Cape Town, I did a U turn and headed to Lesotho with a group of quad-bikers. As our tour ended at the highest pub in Africa I thought it appropriate to take “Chris & Tom” along. The photo was taken on 28 September at Sani Pass Chalets in Lesotho, where the pub is 2874m above sea level.'
