Mike arrives in Nyonie on the West Coast of Africa 0.0N 9.3E

Mike has finally done it. He has arrived on the West Coast of Africa on schedule after completing his 18 month 40 200 km journey around the world, using only manpower, windpower and willpower. He is in good shape altough very tired. Finishing has been an extemely emotional experience.

"When I left on the Expedition, I thought that I knew enough to circumnavigate the world along the equator. But now that I have done it, I know that I don't know enough to do it again" - Mike Horn 26 October 2000.

Thanks to all of you who have supported me on this journey.
