Wow J-mo that was an awesome RR, there was no turning back, the point of no return, once you guys got to the GRP river crossing. Great foties. Jman, that KLR that went scuba-diving, was it Cronje of Wynns?

No, his name is Johan, luckyly he hit the kill switch before it got water in the engin.
Look under the water crossings thread for more pics and vids.

Yip, he's looking at the Truimph 800 trip or the BMW F800GS. :ricky:

I'm telling you that Dakar looks   :drif: and is in Excellent condition.  :thumleft:

PE, GRP, Doornkloof or Joachimskraal (self-catering accomodation at the start of the ecotrail) overnight 1st day , then Rusenvrede and lunch in Kareedouw (or Patensie) day 2, PE

Sounds great Melv.

Maybe a better option will be to do the PE, GRP. Have a late lunch at Padlangs and have a sleepover at Komdomo (270km). Day two will be the Baviaans, R&V and have lunch at Kareedouw (± 160km), and then have the 150km tar back to PE.

Wonder who would be interested??  :thumleft:

 

[Jman]

I would be interested for shure

 

[Gerard]
