I have owned a Transalp and upgraded to an Africa Twin. Happy with both bikes, but the AT makes me smile. AT has a lot more power for two up riding. Always felt the Transalp was battling a little two up. Having said that the Transalp is a lighter bike and easier to pick up and manoeuvre the seat...
Quality time with my son on the bikes. Left Saturday morning. First stop Goedverwacht via Piket Bo berg.
Onto Clanwilliam via the gravel roads, quick fill up then onto Bulshoek dam and overnight at Nama bike camp
I too look forward to your updates and I am following with keen interest. I lost my wife in April 2020 and some of your comments have brought back fond memories of my 37 years of married life. Keep up,the reporting , I can assure you it is being read.
I have only ever used a closed full face helmet with no peak, works for me. I have really enjoyed the built in sun visor as opposed to using sun glasses
