We do these one day Lesotho trips on a monthly basis, this time it was Twister, 171Steve and myself in the group.
We leave Bloemfontein at 5am and trailer our bikes to a friends house in Ladybrand, we are usually on the bikes at around 7:00am and cross the Maseru border at 7:30am.
On the chart you will see lots of different color tracks, the red, green and yellow sections are the main route, the other colors are escape routes. The tracks in Lesotho are very dynamic and we have learned over the years that it is important to have escape routes, pre-planned.
Certain routes can only be done certain times of the year, this specific trip is only possible in winter because of all the river crossings.
I will let the pictures tell the story:
