Who's kak idea was this anyway??

Gonna do it this time

Loopidy loop, smoking dude

214

Jupiter showing that size doesn't matter

Bullcat

Reese

Cacher

Skipskop

J-Dog

in ride backward shots

At Jagtesvlakte ramping

Jman

He didn't get too much air but the contents of his luggage did

214 flying over Jmans refuse

Look mom, I can go sideways

J-Dog found that he had to stand to pass wind and that helped get extra air

Reese showing his ol toppie how it's done

Up and down is boring, you got to learn to twist it baby

Jman finds it's easier with less luggage

Reese proving the other one wasn't a fluke

And off again

They follow, for a while, it's good leading. It's cleaner and the other okes don't know when you're lost

Then the old toppies headed for Out of Africa and J-dog, Reese and I went for a short out-ride.


Good braai at OOA

Cappie joined at the end

Tyger was very thirsty

"Who ate my food?"

Then a short secret detour
Jman in action

Tyger in action

The view

Improved

Perfected

Sonsak

And we were followed down out of the sunset by fairies

The route without the secret section

Google earth below, a bit larger to be able to follow easier

Total distance covered 150km over 11h40

No pics of the massage

Thanks again

Op de vierde dag van Zeptember twee duizend en Tien een kleine pakkie Wilde Honde beplant een reis na de Jagse Vlakte nabeij de donker metropol van de Uitenhage onder de lieding van ene Famp oftewel Fump  oftewel Thump. Meijself wil de reis meegemaakt het maar kon ek niet de lefhebbende greep van mijn vrou vrybreek teijdig om t vertrekt om 09honderd. Dan ek het ontvlug om 09h40 ek het mijn vierwiel aangedreefde motorfiets opgezaald en met een snelle vaart de bosje ingevliegd in een poging om met de Wilde Honne op te vangt. Naby die Mission roete ek het gevonden een overgepigmenteerde en navraagd gemaak na de pak wildehonde en niet een zinvolle antwoord ontvang. De programt het de Wille Honde aangekondig by JagseVlate te wese om 12h00. Mijnself was by de JagseVlak en vele jagse manne gezient op die motorfietse om eelf uur. Mijn gade het ferm aangekondig dat ek een verpligting het na de 14h00 en om 12h00 heb ek een fotografiese beeld vasgevang van de pak Wilde Honde op de JagseVlak. De pakkie honde was veel klein en moeijlik zigtbaar. Verwys na onderziende fotografie   ot:

Deja Vu :

 

[DRAZIL]

cool.
It will be a sad day for plastic riders when the area is fenced and turned into a small reserve.

 

[vellies]

Thump I compliment you for taking the initiative to get us together like this though I could not be part of the whole ride.

Yes it is sad to see this area fenced in. It appears that "7 rivers is no longer accessable and I would be a happy animal if I could live down there. It worries me to see where else they were clearing bushes yesterday with a front-end loader. If that is also for fences then we will be terrible screwed in a bad way.

 

[TornadoF5]

Sorry I missed it Thump looked lekker and looks like the pig would have maintained!

Great initiative Thump!!!

 

[Skipskop]

Thank`s again for an enjoyable day Thump.I had a great day and met some good people.This is the most fun I had in a long time,that is, with my clothes on > .I`m really enjoying getting back into biking.
The sand monster grabbed me twice and another time a rut grabbed me front wheel,so 3 off`s for the day ,not bad for my first day off road on the KLR.Unfortunately there were`nt many cameras around with my off`s  >.
I have some sore muscles today but voltaren is my friend ;D
Here are a couple of pic`s,if I may .
