Swaziland ---- And the Three Musketeers-------

[blazes]

Been about a year last since i have been in --The Kingdom of Swaziland---and the Mountains were calling



Been asked by some WD Ladies to take them with so that they may also be able to see what all the Fuss was about--

Rain predicted for Saturday 60% chance  : Now those red mud roads in the forrest can get ---a little bit Tricky at times. Never the less we planned to meet up at 2.30 am on Saturday morning with two vehicles and trailer the bikes down to save time.
Arriving at the pick-up point--Tank Girl was already there--Olive Oil was --ummmmmm NO where to be seen. Dakota arrived shortly afterwards with her bike in tow. A call to Olive Oil--who said --I am leaving now : She must have broken all land speed records as i was still loading Tank Girls bike when Olive Oil arrived --and Away we went on our Adventure to Swaziland.

The Three Musketeers----------

Olive Oil --Tank Girl and Dakota

Pictures tell a thousand word's --So all i am going to do is post them and at a later stage the ladies can add their thoughts and of course Tank Girl will add some of her pics later --she must have taken 1,000 of them with her new camera  :






Dakota



Olive Oil



Tank Girl



Upper Engweyameni Water Falls



The Valley below



Some Random shots-- Of a Group of friends having fun --bikes and Scenery---







Don't Ask--








The Dead End Road--







Olive Oil --Now known as ---MOSES --Parting the sea. :mwink:



Tank Girl now known as --Fearless--





All and All a Fantastic week end --the rain kept away--No issues with bikes--weather was cool and ideal for riding--Terrian gave one or two of the girls a moment ---or two

The scenery and the freash air ---priceless

The Great Company -----Out of this World

Thought i would have my hands full --but most probably the least work i have ever done on a trip.
As for the FOOOOOD and our lodging  Awesome and for the first time saw Olive Oil excited about food  :

Thank's ladies for giving me the priveledge to take you and show you all one of my Favourite areas to ride in over a border--

We will definately be doing this one more often as you requested -- what Swaziland did for me in two day's a shrink would take a year to do with a serious price tag attached-- Totally rested and destressed---When do we ride again----

[letsgofishing]

Nice roads and ride - thanks for sharing :thumleft:

 

[blazes]

Nice one. Thanks for sharing. Swaziland local are great.

Thank's ever so much ---- some of the friendliest people i have ever met in Swaziland--The single cattle spoor that cris cross all over the Country are also awesome as they have no fences in most places and the cattle roam freely --awesome riding on a small bike ---

 

[tankgirl]

never mind moses - she's the whalerider that went sleepless to swaziland! ;D hehehe

thanks blazes for the opportunity to join, this was one of the best rides i've ever done and hands down the greatest company! 8)
perfect weather, the stunning accommodation and meals was of course a great bonus.

i really can't wait to go back - in fact relocating there is a pretty attractive idea what a beautiful place, people, scenery, and riding! and you can feel it immediately as you step across the border.

pics really don't do this place justice, but here's some cell phone ones so long:

thanks again to blazes, dakota and oliveoil for a damn good time, i can't wait for the next one
and neither can you

[Beserker]

Eish!!

I hate the stuff..why I stick to the desert...as they say, minimize the risk!  ;D

Stunning scenery though...nice one!

 

[Dakota]

Thanks Olive Oil for the idea.... loved every second of the experiance....

Was such a pretty place to ride... didn't really notice the mud was looking at the views most of the time... Mal is always telling me to looke up.

And to Blazes and Tank girl you guys rock... will be visiting Swaziland a lot more...

And yay I got a stamp in my new passport... at last...

[hondsekierie]

What a lovely ride.  One of the places I've never ridden.  Through which border post did you go?

@TG - You really take nice pics (even Blazes look like a pro ot I would have loved to see the pics separated, visual impact better, but maybe it's just me :

 

[Dakota]

Wow TG awesome pics as always... makes me want to bunk and go back... now...
