It's been a while, like four months to the day since we last went on a ride due a heavy metal removal opp i had. To delay things further on my side the "Tyrasuares Tenere" as the neighbour calls it, is still in for repairs. So with a little help from good friend Eikeboom who is got the new DR650 and a KLE500 and Engelsman on DRZ400 a set of wheels was organised and off we were yesterday at about 7H30am. To early for the winter but with 3 to 400kms to go better start early. Over sir Lowrys into Grabouw and then swing left to Villiersdorp with mountains with snowpeaks in the backround. Thanks to good leather gloves and a fleece top under touring jacket only the knees really got cold, but a quick stop for filter coffee in Villiersdorp did not hurt the intestines. Engelsman had to put 2 litres petrol in the DR's peanut tank and we saw a couple of vintage tractors passing through as there was a show on, check out the low profiles on the massey with a chrome exhaust pipe tip. Couple of kays otherside Villiersdorp we took a right to Robertson, going onto dirt for the first time its was nice to smell that early fresh dust. More later
