My Best Ride Yet --This Year--

[blazes]

Some really nice photo's Blazes!

That looks like a wonderful area to ride (as does your Kruger Fence and Swaziland border ride). 

The Vaalwater area has just been added onto my list of places to ride.

At least you are out on the bike riding instead of sitting around picking fights about brands like a lot of people here  :thumleft:   :

Your bike looks great!

Which tyres do you have on?  I have Heidi K60's on at the moment I put them on because I wanted safety on wet tar, they are are quite good for a 50/50 tyre, but next time round I might look at something more aggressive, but am still worried about wet tar.  Still have the original Karoos, although the back tyre is looking a bit tired after my Namibia trip.  Any thoughts?  (PM if you dont want to side track this great RR).

Do you have wide footpegs on your bike? If so how much were they and where does one get them?

Thank's Alan--A ppreciated --

I have tried a couple of tyres on mine --The back Karoo was finished on 1,100km's and that was running the bike in -- Metzeler were kind enough to replace it as i thought it was impossible --they did replace it and i decided to rather get a Continental TKC 140 for the back --on my third one now and must say -- for my riding style they are the best i have got till date on the 610te. Front i ride the Karoo 2 and this works pretty well for me -- Wide --yes very wide got them from TopBox on the Forum --his service was great also got the rear rack and side ears from him -- pm him for a price --sure they have dropped due to the exchange rate

We need to get the Huskies all on a ride soon-- :

Thank's Pete --

Yes the water crossings are a treat this year --although one or two close to home are just too deep to cross after a downpour --Guy's are trading in Bikes for Jet-ski's up here -- :

Imagine how many sales Hentie could have made if he Jet Ski's for sale --- eepwall:

 

[VMAN]

Please post the route :laughing4:

Please post the route :laughing4:

I very seldom use the GPS as i know those roads pretty well and just carry a GPs for nearest fuel stops etc --BTW --NO Fuel at Bulgerivier --maybe in the next two months they said ---

Very fond of that part of the world Blazes - spent many a school holiday there. Would love to tag along some day on your old steed...  :deal:  :ricky:

Thanks for the RR - really enjoyed that!  :thumleft:

 

[pitpaplo]

Is that a private road, or can anyone go ride there?

Those are public roads.

I did notice that by the condition they in  :imaposer:

Laat weet --dan maak ons a Plan -- :thumleft: Funn enough i spent many a school holliday on my Uncles farm past Bulgrivier

he used to have 10,000 hect  in the area--Now a syndicate bought up most the farms and it is now a reserve ---

 

[Brakenjan]

Funny indeed - I spent my time on a farm just before Bulgerivier (used to be owned by my father and three of his friends) but it now forms part of a reserve. Small world....

Ons sal 'n plan moet maak.  :thumleft:

You can have your old one back B, its only done an additional 1000 ks or so and it's better than it was; I've sorted quite a few things out.
