New camel broken in... (Two-up Ride-Report added)

[Camelman]

This is officially my first video ride report of my new steed, aptly named Camel Dingaan, the Desert Camel. There ain't much to say. Left late Saturday afternoon. Went up to Citrusdal on only about 20km of the N7. Tented over at The Baths, then back the next day via the Saasveld, Piketberg, and basically the same route I used the previous day. Found a couple of BMW's D/S okes, I passed. If there were any WD's sorry. Had to get home, was hungry.  :biggrin:

Hope you enjoy!

Lekker!

Just an observation though. Looking at the video clips and the up-and-down bobbing of your camera I reckon it's either your helmet getting some serious wind buffeting or you're at an advanced stage of Alzheimers.

Old Afrikaans cigarette advert:  " Beweeg oor na ligtheid, maar behou goeie smaak" 

Hope you have many safe and enjoyable kilometers

 

[Camelman]

Thanks All.

Jacko: Die kamera is in my hand!  ;D Dis die pad wat so so crap lyk!

GoGirl: It needed something with a LOOOONGGG range. I actually did 430km on the tank on this trip. And theoretically I should have had another 50km to go!

Bradleys: This year my bru! Its time to do the 'camping under the stars in the karoo' thing, don't you think!

Bobnob! YOU SAID IT!  :mwink:

Smart man. Wats jou general gevoel oor die bike toonoor jou ou bike? Bo en behalwe die CC's. Ek dink self om dalk te verander, maar woel nog met 'n klom ideas.
