    Little House near the Mairie - My French Farmhouse.

    You (and your boet) are right about all that. Especially the beer! 😂 We lived in our previous house for 35 years, so this is a wrench.

    Little House near the Mairie - My French Farmhouse.

    After lack of time, due to work and moving to Dullstroom, where our "new" house has been needing a huge amount of repairs (roofs and ceilings needed complete replacement, plumbing and electricity reticulation a horror story), I at last caught up with your Bousseviller saga this morning. All that...

    Rain in the Richtersveld Two.0 - Desolation & Dunes

    A great pity indeed! We were young and stupid. Now I wish we could have recorded all his wisdom. Like in all non-writing cultures, the stories usually had a life lesson as well.

    Not shading on complex living - it clearly works for many folks (perhaps majority of suburbanites). However, living "free" isn't as bad as you make out. We've been living in the same house in Helderkruin, Roodepoort, for 35 years. The only crime we had in that time was when I allowed some...

    Rain in the Richtersveld Two.0 - Desolation & Dunes

    My grandfather (Dirk Frans van den Heever) had that mule train route. He sold it to Jowells transport company (which roundabout that time had the largest fleet of Leyland trucks in the world - running between Bitterfontein railway station and Springbok). How's that for a bit of useless...

    Jammer…. My KTM het nie maniere nie

    Weet darem nie. Dink KTM het darem één manier. Die manier enige tyd, enige plek te breek?

    Honda Navi 110 - Survey & Test Ride

    It is cute, but 110cc so really just a scooter to pop around the block with. But it doesn't have the protection of a scooter (keeping your feet and pants dry). So OK to go to the cafe while the sun is shining, but not good for commuting. Just a little toy. Hence, if R50k plus, I don't see Honda...

    Dakar 2025

    He always struck me as a bit of an anti-hero... :ROFLMAO: Who knows though, because Ross Branch just won the World Rallye championship on the Hero.

    Dakar 2025

    Heard a rumour that Honda has assigned BamBam to attend to her. She may lose focus a bit. As for BamBam ... well we know he'll only ever win a Dakar if they reduce the number of stages to 1.

    Riding in traffic

    I've been commuting on two wheels for close on twenty years. I don't have a car anymore. I don't fully agree with some of the advice given in previous posts, but my disagreement is minor and probably will not make much of a difference in terms of safety. Having spots forming a triangle with the...

    EICMA 2024

    Chris, in India you rarely go faster that 80 kph on a highway, rarely more than 40 kph in town. So a 250 is just a waste of money and fuel to their market.
