Windy windy day!!
Up nice and early this morning to meet up at the Sasol on N14.
Arrived at 6:55am to find Gunda already rearing to go!
Blazes and Martin arrived about 5 minutes later. A quick coffee and a chat and we were ready to go. Left the meeting point at 7:20am
The morning started out cold but got warmer as the day progressed the Wind on the other hand got a lot worse!
It was a fantastic day out Li and I did 320km for the day and I'm sure the other did a fair bit more coming from further away.
I didn't take to many pictures as we were far to busy ridding.
2 "events" for the day were Gunda bashing his side stand switch on a rock and needing to do some roadside repairs and Li having a nasty rear puncture in the middle of nowhere. The size of the rusty piece of metal we took out her tire was scary Luckily I'm always prepared so we were able to change tubes and be on our way without much delay. The route was very open and we did a fair bit of exploring and found some stunning railway service roads in the area. By lunchtime we were closer to Carltonville than Fochville so we had lunch there.
After lunch Gunda headed home to catch some Sport and we did a little more "exploring" there are some amazing little routes out that way that will need loads of exploring. We will be back there soon!
Thanks to the fellow WD's for joining it was a blast!
