My only excuse to not attend a family wedding was to use a bike trip as an excuse. Nobody interferes with a bike trip. Only the weather. On short notice, we decide to do the trusted Cederberg Oasis. We were a bit uncertain, as our host of many years will never be there again. We were only...

It is time for spring cleaning. But I can not throw away this book. Anyone wants it for free. Somerset West.

Video of the rides. Video with photo still is coming later today. As soon as I am fully awake.

I am looking for a leather tank bag that was popular on Varaderos. The leather base gets fixed to the tank with straps.  Then the bag itself just clips onto the base when needed.  I know there are not many Varaderos with seized engines, but maybe one or two that was written of after a crash? ...

Does anyone have info on the Magrieta Prinsloo road.  And the road starting on  top of the Swartberg Pass, all the way to Klaarstroom.  Is is doable? Yster of plastic? Legal or not?  Recommended or stay at home?  Please....

Woke up on Saturday morning at 12. Looked out my window and saw snow on Hans se Kop.  Woke up junior, fired up the 650 and the 600, and went for a wet ride.  Two hours up and down. Back in warm bed by 3 bells. Used two liters of petrol.  Took two hundred photos. Made two guys very jealous.

Friend in Grabouw want to sell his 1984 XR.  Reason for selling:  He phones me to start the bike for him.  Twin carbs. Bike got papers, but I doubt if it is on the road. R25,000 nul agt drie, 253, 0238. (My XR600 and XR650R is not for sale?)

I do see some bike activity here once in a blue moon, other than us three XR musketeers.  Is this legal?  Well the squatter camps hunts nearby on Cape Nature property in broad daylight.  With no consequences.  And my XR is green.  This trip was done with my green (really) VW Syncro bus and...

Ek het 'n paar videos geneem by gister se Canola run.  Hier is solank die links vir twee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsC4XN6j_pk&t=300s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmd9SusgXUw&t=5s

My friends was complaining that we did not had a bike trip in a while.  They were talking about Witsand.  I did not like the idea of long, boring roads in the summer.  So I worked out a shorter, easier ride.  The main points was that there should not be long stretches of roads between pubs.  And...

Ons ry deur Meiringspoort en kry die Tranvaler besig om te speel met sy papwiel. Daai bike het nog tubes. Ek het hom belowe ek sal die foto post.  By hom is nog twee manne wat bikes gehuur het, en Masahara.  Almal besig om raad te gee.

I am looking to buy mudproof riding boots.  Mostly dry dirt roads on Varadero, and some mud when the XR needs some attention?  Any vendors, any suggestions.  New, or good secondhand.

I was looking for an extra key for my son's Varadero.  This key is chipped.  Honda wants about R4,000 and then you must wash the owners car as well.  I tracked a guy down in Brackenfell who could supply one for R1,500. I got to talk to someone at Shanken Locksmiths here in Somerset west.  They...

Do anybody know where I can source a KLE magneto.  Apparently it is something to do with magnets.  The magnets alone could also be helpful.

I bought an extra Varadero in Somerset West.  Without a spare key.  Honda quoted me about R900 for the key, plus R1,500 for cutting and coding the blank.  If anybody recognize this bike, please look under your bed.  Maybe the spare key is still just lying around. I also need a back tire for my...

A friend is looking for a small entry-level quad bike.

I picked up a DRZ400 side cover in Da Gama street, Strand.  It can be collected at my office of False Bay Roofing.

I need to replace my two old HJC flip-up helmets.  I would prefer to stay with HJC helmets, although they was a bit noisy at speed.  I would prefer new, or almost new.  Any recommendations?
