Bike
BMW (all models)
So I went to collect my bike over the weekend from BMW in Upington. Now I grew up in this part of the country and have a real soft spot for the people and places. My folks still farms near a please called Grootdrink. They recently converted my granny's old house into a self catering guesthouse (B&B available on request) and this is becoming a real stopover spot for travelers. More info can be found on https://www.wheretostay.co.za/oumasehuis/

My uncle also just started a "padstal" called KALBAS. And this is not just a name chosen out of thin air. He is actually the largest calabash farmer in the country (I stand to be corrected). Here at the KALBAS padstal you will be able to see all the handcrafted calabash products and more. https://www.calabash.co.za/index.php?page=home

So if anyone of you is planning a route through this part of the country, please feel free to stop and experience that side of the Northern Cape. And if this type of advertising is not allowed, my apologies!

Please give us more info about the trip. This looks very interesting. I have never seen a white GSA before. Post some more pics please.  :thumleft:
 
It was actually a very quick trip to fetch my new bike. A 2012 Alpine White/Sand Rover color GSA. My photos are limited at this stage but will post very soon. Just waiting for the weekend to take her out again.

The trip was from De Aar, along the N10 to Upington. A very uneventful road apart from what I've mentioned above. So sorry, it does not actually count for a proper trip report.
