Southern Cape Tour

[letsgofishing]

This is the same ride that I did with Trailrider, Rooipoot and Eisbein - so I'm not going to write a story as TR has already done an excellent job in his report. I would just like to add some images that I found interesting along the way.

Mods, if you want to move this to the photographic section (because there are no bikes in the pics), that's fine!

The road to somewhere...

Cape Vacca

Malagas

A beautiful old farm that Rooipoot showed us - these are the stables

More buildings on the farm

Stunning scenery along the way

This tree must be hundreds of years old and had a real presence.
If anyone can identify it, I'd appreciate it

An old chain that the roots have grown over

One of my favourites

The lighthouse at Aghullas

...and more stunning scenery

What a priviledge it is to ride abike through this beauyiful country of ours.

I absolutely agree with Eisbein.  You can compose & frame a picture beautifully. This one for instance

As i was going through them, i could visualize some scenes from various movies, awesome.

This one reminds me of Gladiator:

Cool pictures.  ;D ;D
