    Little afternoon adventure

    On a HOT afternoon I got a b in my Bonnet to go for a ride in the forest I had been scouting out recently. The forest was here, I swear, but has been logged and all that remains is what you see - hardly a tree - not much. Recent rains had eroded the roads and I was in no mood to pick the bike up...

    Forest Recce

    The Elgin Forest Resrve area used to be a large plantation of pine trees. I remember seeing some company making a car commercial video in the area becuse, they said, it looked better than the famous Black Forest in Germany - better lighting I suppose. Unforunately the area was logged and...

    Forest Adventure

    Took a little trip to the Eden forest near Stellenbosch where I used the DJI Osmo Action 3 and Pocket 2 to record my little adventure. Then on my way home I rode past Graceland with the Action 3 attached to the handlebar of my motorcycle.

    Clarence drive ride

    Shot using DJI Pocket 2 and Osmo Action 3. A short ride along the Clarence drive that hugs the coastline between Gordon's Bay and Rooi Els. The Action 3 produces a reasonablly acceptable hand held pano. Clarence Drive is a magnificent scenic coastal drive between the windswept hamlet of...

    I really have nothing to say, but I will say it anyway. Shot with the DJI Osmo Action 3 as a vlogging camera - the sound is from the camera held at armslength and also using a selfie stick. In case you were wondering: At the heart of Lust Bistro & Bakery is a traditional, wood-fired...

    Cave Adventure

    I took the DJI Osmo Action 3 for its first adventure - which turned out to be more than I bargained for! It began with the usual motorcycle ride (in hyperlapse) to Dapat se Gat where I descended the steeply tricky (for me) pathway of wretched rocks (in the process of which I managed to fall only...

    2005 Buffalo Rally Part 2

    It was still dark on Sunday morning when the over-revving started up again – and this woke the folks in the van who put on their music again – the words go something like “Save me, take me away from the action…..” Ironic! The previous evening I had remarked to one of my neighbors that my...

    Buffalo Rally 2005

    I left at 6 am, about 3/4hour before sunup, riding through Elsiesriver taking an urban shortcut to the Stellenbosch arterial. At this time on a Saturday morning there was very little traffic. I stopped at a garage to check my baggage on the well lit forecourt. Nope, the load had not shifted and...

    Cannot say I have ever seen a train on this track but judging from the rust on the rails I would say um? We still have trains?

    old Houwhoek pass

    This lovely, old (and very well designed) pass, which is also known as the Railway Pass, is unfortunately only suitable for 4WD vehicles with good ground clearance. There were a total of four passes built down the mountainside since the 1700's. This was the third road towards the Overberg and...
