The Yamaha Helderberg monthly ride went well today , all Home safely.
The excuses started last night and this morning with regards to the wet weather .
We were lucky , I left this morning at 07h10 , NO RAIN !
Arrived at Engen One Stop , NO RAIN !
We rode all to way to Ceres , NO RAIN !
Riders that braved the Weather today and had a blast were :
1. Gavin Mac XT660Z
2. Andy660 XT660Z
3. Tour KTM950SE
4.Tony bones XT660Z
5.Andy Security KTM690
Thanks guys , a good ride was had today even though the 690 ran out of petrol !
Visibility was a bit bad this side of Bainskloof
but one over the top iy was clear all the way to Ceres.
Refuelled in Ceres, then up Gydo Pass , Snow on the mountain above Gydo Pass .
Twas a bit nippy passing by Op Die Berg , but that mountain was covered in snow'
Katbakkies was called KAKbakkies today , snot and long muddy stretches today made some interesting ridding.
Then our morning coffee at Padstal and Justaguy and Tour were hungry and had some burgers;
Then off down Rondawel Pad , which was in good condition today
We then looped back to Padstal for Steak Berger's for Lunch , which are always very good.
Oh , and the record for eating cook sisters at Padstal is .Andy Security , 12 cook sisters !!!
We found a farmer(Bill) that has petrol just down the Katbakkies road , 3km from Padstal , and he wants bikes to pop into his camp that he has built.

There is a sign on his gate , " One free Beer if you buy a Pizza
They have a tented camp there with beds and bedding for hire , some cottages in the
mountain kloof there too/
Some pics down Rondawelpad
