How many times it takes to change the brake lining ?

“In my case, the brake linings lasted 21,000 kilometers. After one year and two months, I had to replace the brake linings on all three axles of the trailer.”

I made a new encounter in the kundelungu National Park 🇨🇩

In a moment of panic and stress due to a mechanical breakdown, I met a curious little monkey 🐒 who stole my eggs 🤣 it was unexpected. I took the opportunity to take souvenir photos, it doesn't happen twice.

The dry season is one of the periods I don't like because of the dust and the wind.

I may not be in a country that makes my work easier, but I am proud of the experience I have and above all very proud to overcome the trials with confidence. Certainly. Some countries are more advanced in terms of transportation, but in terms of wild adventure, my country remains the best ☺️🫶🇨🇩

It was time to change this tire, wich had become too old.

What is the lifespan of a tire? For my part, I change them after 3 months to avoid them exploding in the middle of the road, which can cause serious accidents.

Let's talk about the contrast in these images.

On the left, me working in a mine in 2022; on the right, me transporting unprocessed copper on country roads in 2026. The only difference is the salary. In the mine, you earn less, but you have more work; in the countryside, you earn more, and sometimes it's more psychological than physical. If it were you, what would you have chosen? ☺

After the tie rod broke, I was forced to improvise with a strap to get to the copper processing plant where I need to unload my cargo.

This is how untreated copper is transported in my country: nearly 100 tons on a 60-ton, 3-axle trailer.
