Hi,
My wife (chief planner) has asked a few random questions about our route, but I thought I would post the entire trip here. Ay feedback, advise, input would be great!
We're shipping our bike from CT to JHB. Leaving JHB on the 1st June. Riding KTM1190r, 1 bike with pillion.
Day 1: JHB - Stevensford Game Reserve
Day 2: Stevensford - Letlhakane
Day 3: Letlhakane - Planet Baobab (hoping to cut across the pans from Mmatshumo village as per Clintons (Kwa Nokeng) advise) ???
Day 4: Day off @ Planet Baobab - Salt Pans trip
Day 5: Planet Baobab - Khwai Bedouin Camp (just north of Mababe)
Day 6: Day off @ Khwai
