Brilliant
Who would have thought that one passion would overflow into another
Great idea
The good weather also seems to have contributed to a great weekend

Ok here are some photos of Pom, Mark (Cruiser) and Myself
and our adventures on the Fly fishing Weekend
Ok the start of the trip and we view the latest
Dual Sport Cruiser , just hit the South African Market
The trusty Vstrom's
You thought I was joking , Mark was doing 80km/h on
the dirt on that new DS Cruiser, might have Lost a kidney
or two along the way ;-)
OK So the DS Cruiser does not do mud to well, Mark and Pom
decide to push it through the veld (just so not o get it to dirty)
at one stage you could hardly see the Bike
Mark happy to be on tar again
A quick stop over at the ASH River fallout
Hey just to prove that I actually did catch a trout , and the
first one at that .
Some landscape photos
Some fly fishing
And ANOTHER TOUGH DAY in AFRICA
As they would say in the classics
"Thats All Folks"

You would have enjoyed it. Pity the timing did not work out, but next time I am sure you will come.

Better late than never...!
My day started off at around 4-30am, with a quick cuppa and a final check on the banger to see what had been left out, and then it was off to Bergville to meet up with Bushclown, who was going to show me a "alternate" route...... Unfortunately the mist was very thick and some road works were backing things up, so not many pics of the ride up.

More,
Bushclown took me on an awesome track through the hills from Bergville, where we eventually came out approx halfway down the Sterkfontein Dam road. It was on this track that I had my first "off" again, apologies for lack of picks, but we were running late! When I picked my banger up after the tumble, I noticed that my gear-lever was cracked!!! And I still had aprox 80k's to go to Clarens!!
Needless to say, those last few k's were ridden very gingerly....
I made it to Clarens eventually, only to be told that there was no-one in the "town" that could help me out with a workshop/welder!!!! So after a few frantic phone calls, I located a new lever in Bethlehem!
R350-00 later........!!!!
