Howzit Chaps,

I'll have time over December holidays to do some real adventure riding.  i was thinking to leaeve Gauteng and head for Waterberg on a Solo overnight trip (the first of this kind for me).  The reason i chose Waterberg is because i rode there on my offroad  bike quite a few times and know the mountains to be really beautiful. 

Do i have reason to be concerned doing a first overnight trip +-800km SOLO?  i am a confident rider and know that i wont take any silly chances with anything especially if im out on my own...

I am not familiar with changing tyres out in the bush, isnt that what BMW-on-call is for ?  :imaposer:  i mean that is if they can find me!

Any suggestions as to what i should definately be taking with me would be greatly appreciated!

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Sheldyn
