After he had checked into a hotel in El Ouatia, he realised that a sharp object had punctured his tyre. He was able to fix it because he had already done an apprenticeship with a vulcaniser in Lagos state.

He also spoke about how he met a young lady who asked him out during his time in Morrocco.

Kunle reaches Spain

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that in a post on Wednesday, April 20, Kunle said he has covered 720km so far on his Day two journey as he travelled from Bourges in France to Girona in Spain.

He revealed that the second day of his charity ride was very difficult as the weather was quite unfriendly.

Kunle said that he experienced freezing weather with very strong wind. Despite the difficulty the journey posed, the rider was happy it took him to a monumental place like Millau Viaduct, a structure that has a height of 336.4m (1,104ft).
