A long time ago we did a ride home from the Buffelspoort, and included the old Ghost Railway line. Knowing that we needed to go through Sambona, we contacted them ahead of time and they graciously arranged an escort for us.
When we got there this chap said it was a waste of time going straight through the reserve and took us on a bit of a game drive on motorcycles.
Was cool, till he mentioned that we were now riding through the Cheetah camp, now how fast does one of those things run again.
Took this pic on that ride. Right close up they were.
