    VICTORIA FALLS

    Anything that has to do with a tourist is USD.....always..... :cool: And they very rearely have change..... But you should be able to swipe your card at most places in VicFalls, it is pretty modern, by some African countries's standards!

    VICTORIA FALLS

    I did this trip (Lusaka to Pretoria and back) a number of times when living in Zambia, both in cars and on bikes. Some good advice above. I agree, do not bother to go into Zambia. Get to Kasane, then go into Zim at Kasane, then it is about 60km decent tar to Vic Falls. Stay at Shoestrings...

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    Little more feedback on the Voge, I did a 280km trip yesterday on the West Canals to Beestekraal Stasie and then took the East Canals back. I filled up in Pretoria and then again at Beestekraal. I put in 5L at Beestekraal and did 149km, so 30km/L.... not too shabby!! Had loads of fun and the...

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    I also posted this in the Ride Report thread, but will aso post it here: Let me get into the details of the Voge300 on this trip. I have now had the bike for just over 1,500km of which 960km was done in two days (Friday and Saturday). In these two days I have ridden the bike in pretty much...

    Let me get into the details of the Voge300 on this trip. I have now had the bike for just over 1,500km of which 960km was done in two days (Friday and Saturday). In these two days I have ridden the bike in pretty much every terrain that you will encounter on a Dual Sport Adventure Ride. The...

    Bezuidenhout's Pass Solo on a Voge300 Rally

    Yes, in the wet it is a whole different ball game, specially the lower part on the KZN side, that mud can be treacherous! In January 2016, Jolandi and I tried going up Bezuidenhoudt's Pass in the rain. (We had done Bastervoetslaan Pad in the rain a week or so before). But it was a no-go with...

    Bezuidenhout's Pass Solo on a Voge300 Rally

    I left Harrismith Saturday morning, it was a beautiful day, already nice and warm but Platberg was still covered in clouds. The wind was pumping though! It was going to be a hot day! My plan was to head out to the Kaalvoet Vrou Monument just past Kerkenberg, then head down Bezuidenhoudt's Pass...

    Bezuidenhout's Pass Solo on a Voge300 Rally

    Going up will be harder than going down the pass. You will need momentum (and keep it) to get up and it is very loose rocks, so there will be a lot of rear wheel spinnig. I was comfortable going down as I did not need momentum and if it got really bad, I could just walk the bike down the tough...

    Bezuidenhout's Pass Solo on a Voge300 Rally

    The idea was to ride from Secunda (the starting point of this year's 4-Ways Ride) to Van Reenen on Friday, and then back to Secunda on Saturday. We only found out our destinations on Thursday night, so no real planning, but that is the idea. As I grew up in the Eastern Free State, I know the...

    Bezuidenhout's Pass Solo on a Voge300 Rally

    On Friday and Saturday I did just short of 1,000km on my Voge300 Rally, which Skinny and Jolandi promtly named "Moemfie" :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: We did our annual 4-Ways Ride this last weekend and you will have to keep an eye out for the Tankgirls newsletter. One of us was riding the KOVE 450! I...

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    So, I have not posted anything in a while! Few reasons.... I went to the Eastern Cape with the wife and the bakkie for two weeks, did Baviaanskloof, which was awesome! Got back to Pretoria, work is hectic, then I got Tick Bite Fever, just getting over that now, so not much riding! This weekend...
