deWildt on my KLE500

[JohnST]

Hi

First things first, hi all. I'm newly registered to the forum, but have been reading ride reports for a couple of months. Just been to lazy... 

We went camping at deWildt 4x4 and game farm the weekend, very nice and affordibale!! Altough some friends went with their bakkie I couldnt resist going with the bike to try out some of the infamous roads!!

So Sunday morning I asked some of the guys in the camp where to go etc they gave me the GPS coordinates of the Police station and the "Shop". His words was: But I don't know if you want to go there...

Then getting to the Police staion where everybody leaves their cars, again some guys I chatted to couldn't believe i wanted to go on the KLE....

Well the only thing I would concur is that it is not wise to do this alone! I was flying solo as all the regular guys had stuff on, Trojan's excuse of he has to wash his hair was about the best....   ;D ;D

Cause I was alone there was also no action fotos, and only my washing machine will know how many close calls I really had!!! ;D

Herewith some photos..
