Absolutely Awesome holiday
Flew back in this morning from Cape Town The holiday did not go acording to plan but was an experiance of a lifetime. And before we finished we had started to plan the next adventure. Travelled 5000K miles in all, 2000k of em on dirt roads did not quite get as far as we had planned but what an experiance. Riding along side wild bore and being charged by a very confused gemsbock (big horse with 1m long horns) and road along with a heard of baby Ostriches. Will right a more detailed report if there are peeps out there interested and when i get sorted. Lots to do to make up for my three weeks away. |

*HIJACK*
Filipe...it was good man. It only rained overnight and late in the afternoon. Lovely country. Lovely people and lovely food! I just wish I was on the bike though...some of the mountain roads down there are spectacular although the surfaces in the towns and villages could get a bit dodgy. We will be going back there soon again but next time I will take my golf clubs too ![]() *HIJACK* So where are those pictures RWR ![]() |

Was this one of those charity holidays (you get sponsorship which pays for a new bike, ride a bike from a to b and then when you've go to b, the bike is given to a local farmer)?
I'd love to hear about it. Especially about the wild chickens with big horns which charged you. |

They can get as big as a horse and i certainly wouldn't want to be charged by one... those horns look wicked. Ek verlang ook na Suid Afrika boet... |
