PE to Kei and back

[Zeff Cowboy]

So us guys decided it was time for a bike trip. 3 Days of riding. Lekker. This was also the first trip I did with my brother and contains unforunately no gravel because he is stuck to tar by bike choice.

We decided to go to the East Coast take it slowly and see how far we get.

Me, Mamba and Riaan very excited at Canon rocks….

Next stop Port Alfred…. Thirsty..

GreenMambaBirthdate having a manly men hot chocolate.

Riaan having a beer.

Da Captain chilling….

The view.

We then left Port Alfred on our way to East London…..

Bribing the cops is easy in this part of the world.

Waiting patiently for our companion to return.

We arrived in East London….

Who says a BMW topbox is not useful?

The next morning we went sight seeing through the town of East London. This part of town is a real shithole…. Very dirty. Must say the beaches are beautiful and the girls too….

The view

German settler monument.

3 Okes enjoying themselves on the East Coast.

I SAID HAPPY FACES!!!!!

The bikes.

We then went on to the Kei river mouth.

The full size pics looks much better..... these pics are compressed by about 15 times.... lots of quality lost but then i have to compress to make the page load fast.

Ja die ou was nie vandag daar nie.... pass is net bietjie gevaarlik met so baie los gruis klippies.

Nice Cappy. Looks like a few weeks in the land of the Germans have got you itching to ride your bike in good old SA again. It's a shame about the state of the sea - front in EL though!
Thanks for the photies!

Capitan, how did you stop that rear tire from slow-leaking on the bead?  Or does it still do that?
