Western Cape Amageza qualifier 5 November (video page 6)

[Sprocketbek]

Sprocketbek, al my beste wense aan Abel, ek hoop die man voel gou weer tip-top.

Thanks Danie!
You can't keep a good man down.....he is doing well and will be discharged soon by all accounts.
The unit they fitted is apparently more of a monitor / jumpstarter than pacemaker.
Will give him a good wallop when he gets too laid back.  >

He won't be able to kickstart the Honda for a while so I have been tasked with that chore.

Sounds to me they should just provide an external jack to plug it into the Honda? Simple engineering ;D
Does that unit come with a remote control?  >

Sterkte, Abie! Hoop jy's gou weer op die stofpaaie saam met ons. Groete van Tian en Janetta  :thumleft:

Stand up girls !

 

[Snafu]

Dangerous to call those three guys girls!
I think it is just not challenging enough to consider standing

No No No...the one on the right is definately a chick. (Even his Avatar says so)

Besides..they had to catch the Hondas, keeping wind resistance low helps.

•15 new
•2 exempt
•1 'do over from Q1'

100% (in their own time) :
•3 new
•3 'do over from Q1'

80% :
•1 with mechanical issues
•1 with sand issues
(Both KTM's I might add ;p )

Recovered :
•1 exempt - mechanical issues
•1 exempt - injury
•1 'do over from Q1' - clutch @ Morning Star
•1 new - mechanical issues in Atlantis

 

[newguy]

[Buzzlightyear]

Kirrek, dit was mental issues  ;D "ek ry nou nie 'n f*k verder in hierdie sand nie"

 

[BlueBull2007]

Well done to all - The organisers, the riders, and to the support guys especially! Seems like it was the event of the year.

Great photos, videos and stories too!

 

[GJ]

Spot julle maar lekker met ons 3 girls!!

 

[Pleco]

Ai nou gaan ons darem lekker terug sit en wag om te hoor hoe die Gauteng manne vaar more!

eepwall:

 

[2StrokeDan]

Ek dink die Gauteng manne kyk ons foto's en stuur n danksegginkie op dat hul nie in die sand hoef te kwaliefaai nie. eepwall:

 

[Pleco]

Hulle moet maar daar by Margate gaan sand oefen, want ek weet van n paar plekke daar om Sutherland wat sand het. Anders gaan ons n paar Vaalies he wat sand kastele bou daar in die Karoo!  :imaposer:

Maar ek is seker hulle gaan more bars. Sand of nie sand nie.

Ek soek n ry maatjie volgende jaar, so ek sal die fotos en die videos dophou om te sien wie het soos ek gesuffer.  eepwall:

 

[BlueBull2007]

OK guys and girls.

I had to compose this vid, to convince myself that I can actually ride in this stuff, as I am still sufering from Amnesia from that ride!

Enjoy!

Finally got the chance to watch it - AWESOME stuff. Big time respect for you ou boet!  :thumleft:

I noticed you seemed to be riding a lot better on the sand after 7:54.

The problem is that once you start duckwalking, its extremely difficult to throw that switch in your mind again to get back on the pegs. the short tar section cleared my head again.
