Another tough day in the Swartland

[Shaun]

Another spot on the other side of Kapteinskloof, of the guys passing me. Note the amount of "roost" coming off the rear tyre of Hando's bike > > Looked to me like he was really enjoying these roads. I have to admit though, the sections of road on both sides of Kapteinskloof, do indeed lend themselves to "temp your right hand to seriously TWIST the throttle" > > > ;D

Last few photos from me for now. From here I only shot video footage of the the last section section of Gravel Travel into Malmesbury.

Sure looked as though Nicol was really enjoying the ride & still had plenty of energy..... as he flew past me as if there was no tomorrow,... turned around on the other side & raced pasd me again to meet up with Hando as he approached the intersection. ot: :ricky: :ricky:

From here on, I only shot video footage & will look for the section where Hando & I had a "VERY close call" with a little buck that ran infront of us.

Will post it as soon as I get a chance to go through the footage.

Found the section of the footage of the little buck...... Hando's sharp eyes saw it in time & stared braking immediately.

Here are the screenshots.... (in the last photo,... it looks almost as if the little buck is busy "Crapping Itself")  ;D

Hey Shaun

Thank you so much for the nice pics. Great work.

It does look like that buck is having a dump.  The wide angle on that Drift sure makes that buck look al lot further away than what it was. Glad I saw it in time and started braking when I did, else we would have had some bokkie mince to take home.

Op daai stuk pad tot in Malmesbury kan jy maar verseker wees jy gaan wild sien. Daar is 'n trop takbokke ook wat eendag tussen die bikes deur is gelukkig is niemand getref nie, maar ons moes eers op Malmesbury stop vir versterkwater om die bewerasie uit te kry!
