Sunday, 16th December, 6H00 start from the ener-g garage on main reef road, cnr Robert Rd, Robertville, Roodepoort.

GPS co-ords: S26 11.827 E27 55.939

Ride through Maraisburg, dune, bowl, etc to Harries in Randfontein for brekkies. Then back on the dirt via a different route through the quarry and more dunes to Robertville. Should be back at lunchtime.

DS technical ride, slow and fast, a stand-up ride. Not for newbie riders but new to the forum is cool. Puncture kit, small tools, towrope, wallet and cellphone is all you need - OH, and a sense of humour. Those with big tanks - don't fill them. It's only about 30-40 kms to Randfontein but it takes a while - 'specially if there's mud

All bikes, including plastics, welcome but I strongly suggest knobblies or similar on the heavies.

I'll post a track closer to the time showing our general direction and stops, etc. This is really for those who get lost and don't know where they are.

Rain won't stop this ride, just make it a bit different. Rain suit not advisable on the ride, you will boil! Or just wear the top and keep your legs wet.

With lot's of starters (maybe) someone is sure to get lost so please check the google route on page 6 million. Looking and finding lost souls is near impossible on this ride. For the noobs, latch onto someone your own speed and make a little group and look out for each other. Due to the riding conditions and various paths we cannot stop and wait for stragglers.
