Please excuse the lack of a proper story, it is pain in the ass to type with one hand only.

So on Saturday, I had a lekker ride planned, but it seemed that only very few people were interested in my Monontsha / Heuweltop loop. So tankgirl, myself, WheelZ with CK as pillion and Maxine headed off to the border.

We had such a good ride, with a loooong beer-stop at a local tavern, fixed a puncture, and headed for Heuweltop. Well done to Sias and Corlia (WheelZ & CK) for doing Heuweltop 2up on the Dakkie without a spill!!!  

I will just post pics now, as typing is a real mission.

tankgirl, WheelZ, CK and Max, thanks for a great ride!! Please post your pics as well
