    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    I cannot change the past, I can only make a difference today and every day thereafter. As you all very well know by now, I have a cause. I want to go where people do not go usually. I want to share photos of places which will blow my mind. :useless: I need to ride to maintain my sanity and I...

    Me and my boy. You have no idea how many nights I cry myself to sleep. Treasure every precious moment you have with your children.

    Enjo and Sonja had returned from Cape Cross, but I have to seriously consider my next post. How much should I divulge, how honest should I be? Please tell me.

    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    I went past the world famous Kucki's Pub, but it was closed and I was once again drawn to Tiger Reef. The wind was howling and there was dust everywhere. Brandon's sticker no 54 went up at Tiger reef. Who knows if they will leave it there or take it off?

    26 July 2021 I needed another memory card for my camera and found a store close by. There was a father and his young son in the shop. They left and I got my memory card. When I got outside, the father and his son were sitting in the car and he said that his son was crazy about motorbikes and he...

    The Brauhaus for some take-away beers and supper to be enjoyed on the balcony as the sun was setting and off to bed.

    For some reason, I was drawn back to Tiger Reef. Just some time out.

    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    I saw a sign that said Desert Explorers and pulled in for a beer. They do quad bike and camel trips into the surrounding desert. The Sky Diving photo was taken for my brother Reuel. The Wall of Fame caught my eye and Brandon's sticker no 50 was stuck up there. I was on a roll and tagged the...

    25 July 2021 I had no plans for the day, so I decided to go on a little ride through Swakop. It did not start well. Trying to turn Matilda around, the hole in the garage floor, got the better of me. Down she went. Fortunately, the security guard was around and helped me get her up and pointing...

    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    To end the day, I went to the Brauhaus for a beer, ordered some take-aways (lock-down regulations), back to my hotel room, saw this sign on the balcony, did not apply to me, because I was not in any way part of the law, and went to bed.

    Some photos of Swakopmund. I stopped at Tiger Reef, but it was unfortunately closed. Interesting construction with an amazing location.

    A little punt for Dunlop. The Trailmax Missions had served me well thus far.

    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    I took some GoPro videos on the road to Swakop, still have to edit them, and with all the others, I will eventually add segments at the end of the RR, showing the footage and where they were taken. For now, the wind was blowing so hard that I rode next to a super link truck for a while, on the...

    No problem. It is like going to The Oasis in the Cederberg mountains where they have an honesty bar. You have your name on a page, and as you take out of the fridge, you write it down and then pay when you leave. Well, us lot, the Adventure Bikers are meant to be an honest bunch.  8)

    Brandon Bosch Memorial Ride - Africa 2021

    Stopped at this shipwreck along the way, can't remember the details all of the details, but I think it slipped it's moorings during a storm, was washed up on the beach and was deemed to be too expensive to recover, so it was left there. The wind was howling and I parked Matilda at an angle to...

    On the salt road. I noticed these unattended stalls next to the road and stopped at one. They sell salt crystals, etc., but there is no one around. You select what you want on whatever pedestal and then put money into the tin on that pedestal, according to what you think it is worth. Honesty...

    Final goodbyes to the staff and I am on my way to Swakopmund. Past the campsite, which is very nice, and on to the salt road, where stickers 48 and 49 go up on the signboards.
