The wife and me took another trip up north. This time to include Zambia and Zimbabwe. Same old trusted steeds as previously, except I had taken out the bing carburettors on my wife's R75/5 and replaced them with mikuni carburettors. Something I was advised to do about 20 years ago by Simon Pilfold at the old Bavarian Motorcycles in Pretoria. We also decided to not sleep in the bush on this trip. Houses where possible, so we packed lighter. Our first stop was to be Kathu. We took the N14. The road surface and traffic was generally good to very good. We encountered five stop/goes which held us back about half an hour in total.
The only structure in Kathu worth mentioning.
Staying over with friends in Kathu. Had a terrific supper. However, twice in my life I'd felt awful from drinking one glass of red wine. Twice in my life I'd had a glass of four cousins. This was the second time. How do you look a gifted horse in the mouth? In this state, I drove on to Namibia the next morning.
