Lyk my ons groepie dag 1 tegnies is die enigste wat by Eksteenfontein shebeen 'n draai gemaak het...
Roete was baie lekker en die 990 het hom goed gedra tussen die kleiner fietse.
Ons moe "nood repairs" aan die XR600 se gear lever en clutch lever doen, maar verder baie voorspoedig.
ps. Ek dink die 990 is baie fotogenies...

I have never seen the Richtersveld look so spectacular. I did the trip from Noordoewer to Port Nolloth via Helskloof pass and Eksteenfontein in 2007 and it was a long, dry and very hot 6 hour trip.
 
My video from tech 1 and 2. Found the grainy sand on day one quite tough. Followed @NIMMO @BuRP and @Lars for the most part. I clearly still don't know how to operate a GPS




Those videos give a very good idea of what the trail's like.

I see you bought numerous properties along the way you land baron you!

Lekker Jaco. Dit was 'n plesier om saam met jou te ry.
 
The WR hurts falling over to the right much more than the left - that I can tell you as well.

n Hele geslag Boshoff's op een trip!! 👏

Here are some we took. Most of these are from Andrew, @JustBendIt BIL and Justin.

Never-mind the desert, it's a big sky place



Love this one



The 3 families about to head down Tech 1





Come to me my son...



Right at the last bits of Tech 1



@EtienneNXR doing what he hates x 3...



After a tough day for some, there was some outstanding poitjies...





The stone piles. Look closely, there are literally thousands of cairns as people for their own reasons remember others...



Never seen it so green





Tech 2 early in the stage. A lovely little pass that suddenly opens up to one as you crest it.



Normally this is just sand. It was very surprising to see it like this..



A little oasis in literally the middle of nowhere. Easily missed if you're not looking for it.





Refuel for the little bikes. This was about 70 or 75k's in. Much banter and laughs. I really loved having them on the trail.







Even though it was a month and a half after the height of the flower season, it still was very impressive...





There is a point in this trail where the scenery abruptly and noticeably changes. Just over one crest, the views go from Northern Cape desert scrub to iconic Richtersveld mountainous desert. This is just over that crest looking now down into the Orange River Valley and in the distance the start of the Namib.



Then, before the Rugby final, supper



and some prizes...





Body fluids were exchanged for some of the favoured few...





Some abuse of juniours...









An old forum member, back again @mountainboy



Great to see ladies going out and doing the rides



A deserved prize to a staunch LC8 lover



And then, after all that, we won the rugby!

Great weekend.

Have some video working through.
