i did not get pics of the guys pulling the bike out of the hole either

Andy, is that a camera in your hand or are you rushing over to help  >

 

[cloudgazer]

Aw, I'm really regretting missing this one . Looks like lots of fun was had.

Wes, how on earth did you get through that mud puddle on the Anakees!?

(Also, wouldn't it have been easier just to ride on the grass 'middelmannetjie', or was it a contest ?)

I suppose there are certain risks to owning 17 cat, or should I say, there are certain risks to 17 cats owning you  ;D Who's your daddy?

Ok Wes,I have been very busy at work,so here are a couple of Pics

Briv,doing burn out in mud.

The_Wes

Herminators new dirty Dakar

Not sure who this is,but it looks like the guy on Adventure Riders movie clip from South Africa !Just before the fall

Now this is a new invention that BMW has come up with for the Dakar. "Its the all new ANAL HYDRATION PACK" No more dirty mouth piece.

The PUDDLE,or so it seemed,except for that hidden middle mannetjie !

My fall while planning the ride on the special stage.

Special stage mud,

.

Thake note !  Beware when riding in grass,I stopped to ask a farm labourer for directions, and smelt a veld fire.Only to look down and see my bike was on fire,or at least all the grass between my bash plate and the exhaust.Firs time I had to throw sand at my own bike.

Breakfast at Riebieek Kasteel.

Thats all Wes,Must buy a digital camera though.A Cell phone doesnt quite have the quallity.

 

[Andy660]

Sorry wes,I believe that pic is actually Mountain Boy.
