Ons het nie lank gewag nie, toe kom die manne.
Kyk net hoe windgat is Jup met daai nuwe wa.........

Ek is nog nie op hoogte met al die manne se name nie, maar hier kom hulle.

En toe word daar eers gegroet...............

.......en gesels................

En toe is dit voort na Alexandria, daar gaat Tiger8 en vrou.

So paar fotos oppad na Alexandria, die roete is flippen mooi.

Hier kom die sweeper ook, J-MO

J-MO

Op Alexandria moet ek gou petrol gooi en die ander manne is solank voort na Boesmans via Woody Cape.  Klaar petrol gegooi en ons is weer oppad.

Woody Cape

Die manne stop,  ek en Jupiter moet mos eers ons longe verpes.

Oppad na Boesmans al langs die see.
Hier is almal in een foto (behalwe die arme sweeper, J-mo)

By Boesmans, die wurms kriewel en moet gevoed word.

Die uitsig van die eetplek.

Die groepfoto, Johan “connect” met Knuckelhead.

Weereens ‘n lekker outing.  Dankie aan my vrou vir die kiekies en dankie JMOL vir die saamry.  Aan al die PE se mense, dit was lekker gewees om ou vrinne weer te sien en om nuwes te ontmoet en saam te ry.  Sien julle binnekort weer.  Veilig bly en ry. 

Groete van die Arende.

Thanx for the ride, next time I will bring my dad with for his first WD braai run.
He will be riding my 250 and then it will also be my first run on the 650.
Can't wait

Wow dis mooi groen by julle :thumleft:

 

[Heddles]

My memories of East London are fond. I grew up there and any excuse to ride our bikes offroad was take advantage of. Looking at these pics and this RR, I think I need to inquire as to what you guys will be up to during the time I am there.. I still believe the EC is one of the most stunning places in SA.. No excuses needed to get dirty.. Lol!!

Daai deel teen die kus lyk altyd so. Een van die hoogs produserende melk gebiede in die land.

Ah ! OK, forgot about him for a moment. Welcome Les.(Geese, my forum mentor shat on me when I did not introduce myself. What's this forum coming to  >)

 

[vellies]

Thanks for all the pictures guys and Tannie Visarend. That Angel you took the pic of must have been one of those watching over us today as nothing went wrong.

 

[Jman]

Nice man, thats always a beutiful piece of road.  I actually saw a good couple of bikes sunday morning on my way bay from Port Alfred, was looking for wilddog sticker, but alas. 
PS
Johan is Jakkalsman op die forum, Jy hettie weer lekker water crossings gehad nie Jakkalsman?  :biggrin:

 

[Jakkalsman]

Thanks guys - it was great riding with you guys.  Special thanks to Jupiter for the initiative and organising and J-mo for looking after everyone, especially when my KLR began to misfire.  Made it home with a few more splatters, but the last 10 k's all seemed to be hunky-dory again.  ???

Oh, and thanks to Knucklehead for convincing me to come, irrespective of the lurking weather - it turned out to be a PERFECT day for riding!

Yes, J-man, I looked out for you, but I guess we were on gravel at the time you headed back to PE.  And, no, there was not another crossing, and there will never be one like Grootrivierpoort that day!  :ricky:

PS:  O, en nou weet ek ook van Karel Landman!  Dankie Jupiter en Dodo - goeie stukkie boere-geskiedenis/erfenis hier in ons vallei!

Jy moenie jou bike so baie skoonmaak nie, dis hoekom hy so sputter!  :biggrin:

My bydrae:

Wil net dankie sê vir Knuclhead vir die nominasie van hierdie roete. Ek was verras. Dankie Jub vir die leiding, als het goed afgeloop.

Ek gaan nie fotos pos wat reeds gepos is nie. My fotos begin net na die Kinkelbos Polisiestasie.

Mooi beboste gedeeltes wat ons deur gery het.

Droë boom langs die pad.

Nog mooi dele

Hier het dit bietjie oop gemaak.

Dit moes redelik gereen het die vorige dag.

Af in ‘n kloof in

Op pad na die T-aansluiting waar Visarend, Mev. Visarend en J-Mol vir ons wag.

Hierdie modder patch het so effense opeenhoping veroorsaak.

Hier sluit ons by die Visarende en J-mol aan.

Hierdie gedeelte van die roete was mooi. Dit het gelyk soos ‘n grasperk met koelte bome oral. Volgens Jup is hierdie area die enigste plek  waar hierdie bome wild voorkom. 

Die pad loop dood vir voertuie, maar mortorfietse mag nog aangaan.

Hierdie is een van die mooiste roets wat ek gery het.

‘n Paar Jerseys op pad na die weiding kampe toe.

Visarend en Mev. Visarend het laat weet hulle gaan gou petrol ingooi en ek hoef nie te wag nie, hulle sal weer later by ons aansluit .

Mooi roete

En toe ek in my spieël kyk daal hierdie ST op my neer soos ‘n Visarend op ‘n argelose Karpie. Of Visarend ken ‘n kortpad of hy KAN ry. Mapsource het bevestig dat daar nie ‘n kortpad was nie, maar moet sê dat die grondpad van die Petrol pompe tot hiertoe mooi was. 

Met Jub se nuwe wiele in die voorgrond skep die groep vars lug.

Ingang by Bushman’s Pub & Grill.

Nog ‘n foto van die uitsig van die Deck af.

Wye hoek groep foto.

Koeltebome is skaars terwyl die temperatuur na 30°C toe kruip.

Hier split die Oos London manne en die PE manne op.

Les kom groet voor hy daai Honda se oor oop draai huis se kant toe.

Die vervelige pad na Karl Landman se aardbol toe.

Jub hardloop om betyds te wees vir sy Kamera.

Karl Landman se Monument.

Ai, weer in die Wild Reservate in. Hierdie een is Amakhala, met sy indemnity bordjie lings van die groot bord.  Seker bang ons prosedeer as ‘n tor in ons vas vlieg of iets .

Daarsy, nou verstaan ek ook hoekom daar ‘n vrywarings bordjie is.

As jy mooi kyk sal jy so klein spikeltjie op die horizon sien. Dit is die silhoeët  ‘n Swart Wildebees. Met ‘n ordentlike kamera  sou dit dalk ‘n goeie foto gemaak het.

‘n Mooi Rooihartbees bul voor in die pad. (Weereens ‘n beter kamera sou ‘n beter foto gemaak het.)

Hek uit en op pad na Nanaga vir ietsie kouds.

Op pad na Nanaga het Jakkalsman se KLR begin mis. Ons het gestop, maar kon niks ooglopend agterkom nie. Dit het geklink soos “fuel starvation”.

Besluit toe om Nanaga toe te ry en die probleem daar uit te sorter

Nanaga het ons die fuel filter ‘n paar klappe gegee en dit so gelos. Dit was ‘n kort kuiertjie voor  ons die pad terug PE toe vat.

Ons het verby ‘n groot groep bikers gery.

Die eerste keer wat ek Koega se wind Turbine sien draai.

Sluit die rit af met ‘n Koffie by Coffee Society.

Dit was ‘n baie mooi roete gewees. Ek was bietjie bekommerd oor die weer dat dit sou reen maar daar was niks van nie.

Dankie aan almal wat dit moontlik gemaak het. Dit was ook lekker om nuwe hone te ontmoet het.
