Natal Dual Sport Festival 2024

[JonW]

So the Natal Dual Sport Festival took place at Sierra Farm in Mooi River this last weekend and what an awesome weekend of riding and socializing it was.

This year Alfie Cox and Steve Eayrs of KTM Durban decided to jointly host the event, and for our sins @BIGMAC and I got asked to organize the routes for the event.

The festival was held from Thursday to Sunday, with two full days of riding, just over 70 bikers participated from all over the country.

All packed and ready to go, did a nice dirt road through the Karkloof, with a nice stop for coffee and a pie at Windmills at mount West.

Sierra farm is a laid back venue with comfortable accommodation and a great pub, perfect for events like this.

She rode all the way from Pretoria to the event on her 500 and then did the whole red route.
