Living the American Dream
So me and Slowpoke decided the weather was looking good this weekend and we needed to test the Heidies on his bike. We choose to ride to Steylerville via the Groot Rivier poort.
The Route.
We met up at 09:30 where I was busy purchasing refreshments. I knew it was going to be a long ride.
First stop at the Sand river dam. I hit a pothole the size a meteor crater at 120km/h just before this shot was taken. I was glad to be in one piece.
The dam wall. Its overflowing.
The Sand River.
Slowpoke coming slowly up the hill. Nice view of the Elands river valley in the background.
Looking towards Humans dorp.
Looking up towards the tower.
Some more views.
Hiway to Steytlerville. A great road to do but I will not recommend for newbies.
The road runs along the mountain tops. GPS altitude readouts were amazing.
Found this old burnt out house. Interesting inside.
Found quite a few deserted houses. Would love to spend some time here.
Italian BMW on its way to Steytlerville.
We found this skilpad pushing another skilpad out of the road. The other skilpad was obviously tired of walking or something.
Great riding.
We wanted to stop but then we saw the sign.
The pass is very high. Donâ??t wanna fall down there.
Unlike Slowpoke I donâ??t like parking near the edge.
Slowpoke admiring the view.
Slowpoke crossing the river. I crossed the river with so much speed that I even had water up my nostrils.
Stopped for some refreshments. Here we met two farmers from Patensie.
The â??littleâ? Groot Rivier.
Coming out of the poort.
Some views.
Suddenly the field changed. Aloes and green bush.
Within the next few kilometers the field changed again. We are in the Karroo YEAH BABY!!!!
The Karroo my favourite. Black is the main color.
Tipical Karroo gravel hiway with huge bumps. I worked out I need at least 125km/h on the GPS before I go airborne.
Steytlerville the nice town with food and cold beer. They also have nice waitresses.
My bike was thirsty.
The Royal.
Some kids.
Kudu droe wors just for the teaseâ?¦.
Thanks Slowpoke for the great ride it nice riding with you.
