To all the WD guys and gals waiting in anticipation on a report / feedback from yesterday's ride to Breede Rivier, wait no more....  The ride was A W E S O M E!!! 

We left my place at about 08:30 heading for the Winelands 1stop on the N1 to buy breakfast, consisting of pies and sausage rolls and coldrinks.      When we got there, I was in a sweat.  My nerves was shot.  Luckily I managed to get that all under control in no time.  From there we were heading off to the du Toit's Kloof pass.  That part of the journey went much better as I was much more comfortable and at ease.  The mist on the pass was really bad and we couldn't really appreciate the breathtaking view from the top.      Non the less, we stopped for breakfast.  From there, on with the journey.  I can't begin to describe the thoughts going through my mind as we proceeded to Worcester.  It was such a feeling of freedom, totally in touch with Mother Nature.  The thing that made the biggest impression on me was the  "smell" of the trees and plants along the road. It was overwhelming.  Totally different from being in a car.  I even became more and more "windgat" on the back of the bike.  :biggrin:    One hand holding onto Goose, the other holding on the handle at the back.  In Worcester we stopped at a little butchery for meat.  From there, onwards to Breede Rivier.  On our last turn off to the final destination, we had to go through ankle deep water.  Oh my goody gosh!!!      All I can say is, we were a little wet.....    When we reached our destination, I only saw bikes as we came around the corner.  What a sight!!  Ha ha....  I met a couple of the WD, sorry if I can't remember all your names.  But I can definitely say, you are a group of extraordinary people.  I had such a great time. 

Heading home, of course we went through the water, again, sommer 2 times, hie hie.  :ricky:    My husband took a video.  As we were riding closer to home, just after the Huguenot Tunnel, the wind suddenly became a challenge.  Goodness me,  it was blowing with a force.  Luckily we made it home in one piece. 

Last night, as I was reflecting on the days activities, one thought kept on popping back into my mind.  I might be disabled, but that still doesn't stop me from living my life to the fullest.  That includes be pillion on a bike.    :ricky:  :ricky: 

Goose, you really outdone yourself.  Thank you so much for a wonderful day.  Myself and my husband and our two friends who accompanied us, had a wonderful time.  You are truly one good rider.  Hats off to you for the way you handled the wind situation on the N1, back home.    :thumleft:

One last beeeeeeg thank you to freakonaleash for lending me the ATGATT and trusting Goose and me with the loan bike.  You're a real Trooper!

I might be disabled, but that still doesn't stop me from living my life to the fullest. 

I have a friend or two who also face 'challenges' and I've grown to realize one thing with regards to
people in wheelchairs: You are as 'disabled' just as much as what you tell yourself you are.
Once you have adjusted the way you do things life can still be enjoyed at full throttle!


I like your spirit - was very cool to have met you.

Take care!
