Was a cold and windy day but I just had to get out
Found even more places to play in my back yard ;D

No story just some pics. It's worth the visit. Some technical bits too.

Will have to go back again this weekend.

Lekker piccies!

Who is this oke coming towards the camera?

 

[blackalper]

Thanks. The guy coming towards me - actually walking away from me, (poor cell camera)
has been walking the area for the last 25 years. He was one of six houses in his suburb when he first moved to Roodekrans. He was an interesting individual, has business concerns in Botswana and SA. Spoke to him for almost an hour. It's amazing the people you can meet if you just give of your time.

He was surprised to see my TA on those roads - mostly MX bikes venture up there.
I think I did OK. ;D

Ok, I thought it might be a squatter or the like, 'cause it will not be lekka to meet one of them out there on your own.

The old guy told me that in the 25 years hes been walking there, he has never had any kind of incident with the locals.

Sandalper - please let me know the next time you go out there - know the tar, but not the dirt in the area, thanks

Thinking of going again Sunday morning, I have to work tomorrow
