to work some African magic.

We have 35 of the fastest riders in.

passing through the third ma2e.

Number 1. Roger Harvey.

Number 1 5. Day Brent.

And from America.

number 33, Matt Younger.

Any one of the 35 could win,

and they all eagerly wait for the start.

And let the tapes fly bach.

He's checking

to see if everyone is ready.

ln another second.

we'll send them on their way.

They're off.

Younger is starting right

in today's conditions...

...which are totally different

to the dry courses he's used to.

Approaching the line is Roger Harvey.

followed by Mac Dylan and Jeff Bags.

The resuIt of the main event for the day.

the Edwards Trophy...

...is first. Roger Harvey.

...third. Fred Mays. and 4th. Bill Smith.

Can we have the riders for the 250 event.

-Yeah. I'll fix it.

Our language is Kiswahili.

Spoken from the coast.

inland to the Lake Victoria Region.

We produce tea. coffee...

...some copper. diamonds.

We have a land area

of over 300.OOO square miles.

One of the largest mountains in the world

and dozens of lakes.

We need skills of all types.

So skilled people of goodwill

are welcome.

Especially Afro-Americans.

We're trying to build our nation.

So if you don't stop doing that.

I'm going to fall apart.

May I have some water. please?

Of course.

Thank you.

I have a surprise for Stefanie this afternoon.

Would you like to come along?

No. I don't think so.

I'm gonna be very busy shopping.

For a hydroelectric plant.

I'm having lunch at the Soviet Embassy.

Well. I wish you luck.

Bye. Catherine.

Goodbye. Mr. Younger.

Or should I say. goodbye. Dr. Younger?

The ghetto doctor who runs

neighborhood clinics for poor people...

...and races motorcycles on his holidays.

I have some very good friends

in your State Department.

-Have you?

-I asked.

I have good friends there too.

they told me you asked.

You easily could have cleared it all up

if you wanted to.

You'd better go now.

I need some time for regrouping.

I'll come by the South Bank Gardens at 2:30

in case your plans change.

Oh. you might like to know...

...they're very touchy around here about

strangers wandering through the premises.

I do hope you make your way out

without being cut down by a hail of bullets.

I must speak to the ambassador

as soon as he's awake.

You'll have a vanilla?

-There you go.

-And you too.

-One more? Thank you.

-Now.

-Two.

-Lovely ice cream.

-Make it three.
