This ride was with the 100's Riders. PMB. Great guys. Follow them on face book if interested.
10 Bikes, with 16 riders and their wives.
Left PMB 24 September came back 27th Sunday.
First days route was PMB, Estcourt, Harrysmith, Golden Gate, Ficksberg.
Slept over at Imperani Guest House. Very nice.
Second day to Katse. Stayed at Katse Lodge, Orine Hotel.
Nice road with over 700 bends. Very enjoyable.
Just be on the lookout for broken vehicles parked around bends. We encountered two.
As well as donkeys and sheep.
Photos to tell the story.

Second day we headed into the Kingdom of Lesotho.
The weather was hot and dry.
After reaching the dam we organized a tour through the wall.
Well worth the R10.00. Really amazing.
Towards sunset we went on a sun set boat tour.
Great fun.
I have a photo of the hotel on the ski line.

There was time for a bit of beer and exploring some of the surrounding hills,
before heading home.
