Sani starts just below that single cloud in the sky. I had to use the handbrake a lot to arrest my downward journey. Sure, you can use your pedal brakes, and heat them up, and once you dip your tyres in the icy mountain streams the combination of heat and cold makes them crack. Recently this happened and a vehicle descended VERY fast, killing someone. Climbing into Lesotho from both sides is incredible - and so is the country itself.
