    The OOSTFIN "Sethuthuthu" Weekend, 11 - 13 October 2024

    @ Pulsonic its not a race , and the road in Lesotho average speed is about 80 kph . But I know the convoy rule , so when we turn we wait for all to catch up then we go again , Its cool that you will join . Hopefully we can get a nice group together!
