So me and the GreenMamba man with the blue bike went for a ride. We decided to take it easy and do the Zuurberg to see how much damage the fire had caused.

We met at 09:00 at Blue Water bay and fought the wind up to the first gravel turnoff we could find.

The track compliments of my Garmin.

Green Mamba putting on his ultra cool jacket. I had to sweat in my jacket all day long because I forgot my summer jacket at home. Check the clouds. The wind is pumping PE style.

Someone banged this pole over. Seems like the turn was too sharp.

I told Green Mamba I know a place with Mooi Meisies and he got so excited he humped this pole.

We searched for the rumored pub in Patterson. We found it. It was unfortunately closed.

Pic42.jpg


This man rode in my dust all day. LoL.

Pic43.jpg


We stopped off at Nanaga for some beers and Wild boar pie. Hmmm njammie. Then we tried to get home on the dreaded N2 with 50km/h crosswinds.

I are tiredâ?¦ need sleep.
 
nicely penned cappie!

that game reserve near alicedale was the highlight for me, think it was called Burchells if memory serves me right?  plenty of eland roaming about, lovely scenic dirt road through the reserve, almost like riding through a garden.

 
Ag no man Cappy, we're getting such nice RR's out of you since you've got the Funduro, what's up? BTW, top notch RR again!
