Robbo WH, Mrs Big Alan an I decided to go see all the shenanigans at the gate of the Impala Rally, we of course took the long way there. We followed the water canal's from Harties past Rashhoop station to the Dikhololo road, past Dikhololo on the main gravel road back to tar.

We had barely left home when Robby got a puncher on the front of the KLR. We stopped at a garage in Rosslyn to patch the tube.

Note the jack, free from the garage.

The wheel came off, patch fitted using my GS to compress the patch.

Made it to the canal's eventually, checked Tyre pressures and went on a great ride. Caught up to a 4-wheeler with a beautiful lady on the back and wanted to pass in style, as I went to the other side of the road I hit thick sand, full lock left, full lock right, legs every where, Wilna half up my back, but came to rest right side up off the road, which you could have seen the look on Ms beautiful's face. Wilna said it was because I was looking at Ms beautiful and not the road, denied that of course.
