We left on fryday about 3/4pm and came there at Die Mond-very nice place in the Karoo at 6.
Packed off everything,and setted up the tents,had a nice braai . . .
Next day(saturday) i woke up about 6/7 geared up,took the DR for sum early morning exploring around the area. . . Absolutaly beautiful place,nice people too,asked them if they ever wanna sell the place,no luck-Would love to have that place for myself.
Anyway,did all the roads possible,even went of the road into the unknown,just crusing around.
Went back to the "bivouac" haha,tents and had a coffee and sumthing to eat,then me and my brother packed,got the fishing gear and hiked up the river,eventualy got a nice spot,caught a couple of bass,and we left. . .Sun was a bugger! Burned the hell out of us...
Came back for lunch,took the canoe up the river to the CAVE(very nice place to camp-my next trip with the bike).
Had a swim,and raced back,took the bike,had my younger brother (15) ride sum DR,and there's a quad track just outside the farm,where we played around till dark.Lots a fun.
Anyway,next day,we packed up,heading back home to al the "GERAAS" agen. . .
Havent seen any other bikes on my way there and back. . .
Till the last 5km on the Ceres caroo gravel-highway,3 guys,one BMW dakar,a BMW 1150 and a Yamaha XT660 ,they were packed for a long trip i guess. . . They greeted,and when I got in ceres we had lunch at steers,and then saw a guy on a new 1150 BMW with a pillion,cool guy,he greeted as well,and got 2 KTM Adventure's,one was a women riding a 990/950 : Respect! Go girl,Haha.....Cool
Anyway,had a gusting wind blowing the whole day and was not very nice,But thanx to my new screen,it was way better than without it.
We rode Tulbagh om,and drove pass 4 harley crusers,and guess what,they greeted. . .Was amazed,None of the Ass#&les on superbikes greeted!!

Anyway,returned safely home on sunday afternoon.We did about 570km's and my new D606 i got like 2weeks ago,has a good wear on it already,Very lekke tyre but i think im gonna get like 3000k's out of it. :'(
So thats it,was'nt going to post a ride report,was too lazy,but here it is now.
Cheers
Ride Safe
