Awesome, thanks Will he travel to CT once every 2 weeks? :unsure: :D

Surely KTM must be sponsoring you by now!? Not many known local guys using and showcasing their orange beasts as well as you do 👌 And since you ride so much you must also clean so much - what is your choice of cleaning stuff and procedure to get all those hard to get to nooks and crannies on...

Maybe @dieseldawie has all our answers? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Jis, dis presies hoekom ek sukkel om die 950 te laat gaan :ROFLMAO: Maar, mens moet nogal kan ry om die goed regtig te kan geniet, anders kom n ou vinnig in die moeilikheid - ek kan seker net helfte van daai fiets se potensiaal gebruik. En as jy alleen ry en omval sukkel jy maar meer

OK, this one even I might be persuaded by - rubber arm and all Maybe just not do ultra long rides in a day then Although...:unsure:

Give this man a Bells :cool: I still think this is almost the perfect bike for me - maybe just needs a slightly more comfortable seat. And the seat height will be a problem for many riders And the range on the standard tank alone is pitiful BUT - on this last trip of mine (ride report is on...

Ok, say words, breathe deeply, eat an apple, drink some more water. Man! Am i missing that Coke I gave away a few hours earlier! It's almost 5pm - I might again be home a little later than I thought, seeing that I am 223km from home, in the Tankwa, still with a flat tyre. And no cell reception...

But oh well, whatever, life is good, and Ive got a spare tube, crutch-thingy and I know how to use them. So I park, start unpacking the stuff and send a silent thanks upwards that I just bought a small Desert Fox compressor a few weeks ago. I'm getting lazy - previously Ive always used a...

Looking over the poplar forest and the the start of the Dwyka Canyon I can see the the road I went up past my cousin's farm on Die Posroete, of Rantepad, almost 2 days ago - full circle. No time for daydreaming though, although I stop and marvel at the stretch of water on the plateau, and the...

By this time I know I am going to be late, at least a little bit, so I push on at a slightly less leisurely pace. Although not to the point where I have to concentrate too much and miss photo opportunities 😎 The road from Merweville to Sutherland is a beaut, and once you hit Rooihoogte (as the...

Van Beaufort Wes af het ek met die N1 uit Kaap se kant toe gery, en so 15km uit regs op n grondpad afgedraai - die loop al die pad Merweville toe, en kruis net die teerpad Fraserburg toe. Die pad is in n baie goeie toestand, maar die veld in die area is maar droog, sleg droog. Wetie of daai...

Also had them bring my X from PE to CT early Dec, and only got an invoice to pay about a week later :) Good communication, and the driver knew what he was doing reversing with that looooong trailer with about 11 bikes on :cool:

Before 8am I am in Beaufort West, grab a snack and a coffee and fill up Badger, before riding around town a bit, revisiting many years of good memories hoarded while visiting my grand parents here. Its sad to see the absolute decay of houses and gardens in the part of town where they lived only...

I sleep well that night, despite my thin blow up mattress deflating slowly during the night to the point where my hip presses on the ground when I lie on my side. But I knew that even before I started the trip - should really see if I can sort the leak sometime. 🤔 At 5:20 Im awake, aware that...

Dankie Danie Ja, die infrastruktuur ding is maar wat dit is - dit maak darem vir mooi fotos 😊 Ek glo Laumé gaan goed herstel ja 🙏🏼🙌🏼

Thanks DeeDub Yeah, I really enjoy the occasional total solitude - and there's not many guys that will volunteer to do these distances with me 😄 I use my phone yes - but have to lightly edit most pics on the phone before posting - its a cheap Hisense Infinity 50, that doesnt take brilliant stock...

Goed so - eks al 2/3 deur 😃

Jis, daai wolke laat my aan die Karoo dink - ons kry nie sommer sulkes hier in die Kaap nie. Lekker trippie daai van jou - dit hou jou so bietjie ry fiks vir jou volgende lang ene 😃

Kom ek maak die dag klaar, dit raak laat Graaff Reinet was in 1786 gestig/begin/watookal en is die oudste dorp in die Oos Kaap, en seker ook die mooiste ook. Die Grootte Kerk is binne 2 jaar, van 1885 tot 1887 gebou Terloops, ek het in Std2 n potlood skets van die Reinet Huis, wat in 1812 gebou...

Heading south out of Richmond towards Nieu Bethesda I somehow missed a turnoff (should really get my gps sorted - its a hassle to keep on taking my phone out of my pocket), but further on found another rd back to my route. I managed to outrun a bit of a thunder shower, and in the process missed...
