Going to the Tankwa is very expensive

[shark_za]

Congrats , can I sell you a pair of boots for really cheap?

My daugher has the same bike and loves it, she has outgrown these boots.

Geniet dit en soos iemand hierbo gese het - begin sy eie thread  :biggrin:

Baie nice RR Kaboef. Hoop die jong man geniet die rooi gevaarte.

PS : Ek sien die Hoenner supervise net , hy maak nie self pap wiele reg nie.:

Luister doptril, die werk is gedoe en Heddles wou die "pinch bolts" self doen!

Best Ride Report Ive read in a while, and, a bike for a boy is cheaper than drugs and pregnant teenage girlfriends!

I don't know...

Chics dig bikes.

This might only be the beginning of problems[emoji6]


Great RR and great Dad!!

Hey Kaboef, What a cool trip. I remember in my last year in SA doing a 3 night trip with my son and he was roughly the same age. Probably my favourite memories of a bike trip and him and I often still chat about it. He is 22 years old now.

Thanks Jimmy.

Yes, the trip really brought us closer together.
With him riding a bike now, we can share banter as we now have a common interest.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys.

Aldo is becoming more and more confident on the bike.
I see him relaxing his body, not tensing up anymore. He also really likes brake-sliding the back wheel.. He can do feet-up tight turns easily, and generally he looks like he is in control of the bike. Not scared anymore.

And he has tried stoppies (luckily without much success), and after watching a few Youtube wheelie videos, he is now asking me to teach him how to get the front wheel in the air.  :eek7:
:biggrin: :biggrin:

Begin al bietjie windgat raak

Dan is dit nou juis tyd om sakgeld-boetes in te stel weens ATGATT-oortredings, dalk, seker, glo?
Hang van sy Pa af seker, maar Pa's weet mos altyd beter..... hoop ek, HKGK is altyd naby ommi hoek 

 

[Kaboef]

Hy ry darem altyd met jeans, skoene, handskoene, en helmet.

Nie soos ek begin het met plakkies en n open-face sonder padding of chinstrap nie.

Ek dink die bikes daai tyd was stadig genoeg dat die engele kon by hou!! :thumleft:

So Aldo begin nou lekker ry op die klein 125.

Ons was vandag, ondanks die vreeslike hitte, Zone 7 toe.

Hy het nie boots gehad nie, en ek het toe sommer in Zone 7 se winkeltjie rondgekyk en wrintiewaar staan daar toe n stel 2de hande Crossfires in size 7. Hy dra n 5tot 6, so n 7 sal hom seker n rukkie hou. Ek knyp toe maar my oge toe en straf die kaart, na ek bietjie gestry het vir afslag.

Hy het toe sommer so vars-vars met sy nuwe bootse op hul junior enduro track gaan ry. Sommer so iewers in die derde of vierde rondte kom slaat hy hier voor my neer, en die bike val reguit met die footpeg op sy enkel. En net daar betaal die bootse vir hulself.  :biggrin:

Hy het lekker gery, seker so 20 rondtes. Ek het nie getel nie, want ek het vir klein Cillie ook gehad wat wou fietsry so my aandag was verdeel.

Aldo ry regtig oulik. Ek het hom bietjie tips gegee en gelos dat hy die res self uitfigure.

Lekker man.  :thumleft:

But!

No job in finished until the paperwork is done.

So that evening, the negotiations with Rael and Michelle were concluded via Whatsapp and yesterday morning early I again found myself en-route to the Tankwa, but this time with the bakkie.

We loaded the bike, and Rael even provided the owners manual, spare key, original tool kit and purchase invoice. The little Honda is immaculate. Hardly ridden.

And Aldo hasnt climbed off it since.

Most expensive bike trip ever? Definitely.
:biggrin:

Well done dad.Wish i was there riding with you in the muddy Tankwa.my favorite place
