Many Thanks to Henk , Sox , JP and all their  competent staff  for an amazing weekend.
Awesome routes  and good company made for a very enjoyable weekend,

Dual Sport drag racing and a hectic wing , 6 bikes abreast , well lets say the Tankwa is still under a dust cloud.

Lets see some of the pics on this thread.

Strongs to Pistonpete who cooked a corner on the way to Ganaga Pass , narrowly falling short of hitting the Cattle Crossing gate.
As far as we know , he broke his collarbone and a bone in his foot.

Whitedelight will keep us up to speed with Pete

Mapsource , email me your pics ?

Sorry , no pics , I was trying not to get blown off my bike going up Oubergpas.

On the Orange Route that I was leading , 14 Bikes fell going up the pass,

And thats excluding the guys that fell before we got out on the Tankwa Reserve "In the sand"

At one stage , there were 3 BMW 1200 lying on the ground all together.

The pass is very slippery and those huge speed bumps are a nightmare.

Oh , and dont try ramping over them , there is a huge drop on the other side , and thats when u are going up.
The switch backs were especially slippery
