Hi Guys
Thanks for the feedback.
No we are definitely not speed cops.
Just two engineers pondering, one concerned about his grand kids. >:(
Personally I thing the chap in question should get a proper klap, as the schools teachers did speak to him but he told them to sod off.
They have now...
I have just been asked by a colleague:
• May you have more that one pillion under South African law? I.e. more than two on the bike at any given time
• Is there any regulation that relates to helmet size for children?
The story behind the question is that he has seen a father transporting two...

Dis hoekom ek 'n BMW ry. Hulle was die enigste ouens wat kans gesien het om met my te praat.
Niemand by Honda, Kawasaki of Suzuki wou eers met my praat nie. Wou destyds KLR koop. Het seker na 'n arm gat gelyk. Was in Bloem en Oosrand by al die handelaars. Nie eers die tweedehandse handelaars...
I ride into underground parking garage every morning with the Zumo on. It looses signal. The longer it is on in the garage the longer it takes to lock in the afternoon when i ride out of the garage. Normally it takes about 500 to 1000m to lock. Once it took about 15 km to lock.
My Nooi .... nog steeds.
Sy ry ook self.

We did it at last!
The trip we dreamed about. (Actually, the dream was to do a decent trip-anywhere, as long as we spend extended time in the saddle)
KiloBravo being the overprotective spouse, me being a leisure rider, we had to do a “trail run” to see if I could manage 400km a day.
We had a...

I tried to use a Ericson, Motorola Milestone, and I phone 4 on the bike. They all work in the shade, In the direct sunlight you cannot see the screen. They are not bright enough.
In car the the Ericson was outstanding. Even had the tracks in Etosha and the Skeleton Coast.
On the bike it was...

1k to 30 k done at Auto Alpina ans 40 K BMW in George. All services done in the last 2 years.
50 k should be next week.
On mine if it say 0 km I still have about 3 liters of fuel left.
If I take it over the 0km it can take up to 100km after filling up for it to get back on track.
Pick your riding partners carefully.
This is why its normally only the wife and I when we hit the road. We ride at a pace WE are comfortable with.
We did a trip in April (6500 km) and never planned more than 400 km per day. Most days we did 300km. Trust it may have been slow, but it was fun...
I agree with ALLAWYN.
The Namibia "highways " almost made a statistic of my Disco. Hit a wash over a rise at 110km. Took all my skills not to loose it and the off-road trailer. Fortunately I was slowing down because the wife saw some bird in the veld.
On dirt it is normally inexperience. Just...
