Dusty Rusty
Grey Hound
now i know what's not for me! Went today to stanley winefarm to do their funduro. Now, being a newby and all i made arrangements that someone would show me the "ladyloops". Well, that someone left me at the mercy of a very good plastic rider, who left me on my own there. I can't blame plastic rider, he himself was just there to enjoy the day. So, daar's ek op my eie en toe begin ek ma' die paaitjie te volg in die rigtig wat hulle gery het. Now, to paint the picture for you, that part of the trail is like a forest with a little wheeltrack. At first it looked okey for a beginner, but then it snakes up a hill that looked just to dodge for my tw. So, i try to get off the wheelpath to a trekker/plaaspad about 3 m away.
There's now way to turn around and go the same way back, caurse it's a one way for the bikes. Anycase, so i got off the paaitjie and i could't fined ground under my feet! And there i lay with the tw on top of my one foot. En ek kry nie my voet onder die bike uit nie. So i tried and rest and tried some more and op 'n manier het ek my voet daar uitgekry. Next thing i see petrol dripping out of my bike, en ek raak bekommerd, want ek weet nie wat dit beteken nie. Now, i'm trying to lift the tw. I got her up about 30cm and that was it. Now more stenght. Lucily then someone came to the rescue, a fellow wilddog, kungfu panda. He lifted the bike up, and told me i can ride with him. So, off we go. He on his plastic ktm, i on my damse'. He pick up speed, i pick up speed...dwa! Da' le ek al weer op die grond! Then my ankle, the same one on which the bike fell on started hurting, and the bike is crying petrol. Then i deciced it's a good time for pms and i also started crying. Maby it was hauling? This day was not working for me. Kunfo panda then help us up, and show me back to the parking place/ starting point. I don't know way, but i could not stop crying. So when i came closer to a plastic group at the starting point, i just head off to a sort of trekker trail and ride by myself next to the vineyards and so on. Then i find my way out, went to the other side of the farm, just across the road and went home. If you have a plastic and you are looking for an adventure: this is for you. If you are a newby; stay away! If you have a DS; i think your bike will be to heavy. Now i am in bed, whith an sprayed ankle, with an dissapointed heart, due to the fact that that somebody din't kept his word and handed me down to someone who did't even knew that i was supposed to do the lady loops. Well, i will not do a staley funduro again. I'll rather stick to a pack off wilddogs who takes cares of their pups!
