Great ride report Zanie and big respect , thats some hairy riding.

I will hopefully slowly catch up with ride reports. There's a couple of photos (GoPro snapshots) that I have of you at the Koedoeskloof trip. Still need to upload that trip's photos.

Ag great Zanels maak my sommer nog meer lus vir die naweek. Dankie vir al die moeite met die Ride report, ek moet my sokkies optrek.

Dammit wens daar is evidence van die keer se eselbank dat Gerhard kan sien ek het slegs 3 sekondes gepaddle lol. Alhoewel paddle is goeie cardio

Jy't flippen goed gedoen met die tweede Wupperthal trip. So goed dat ek jou skaars gesien het! Noudat ons so op ons agterente sit die hele dag op 'n motorfiets moet ons maar probeer oefening inkry met die sand paddle.

Thanks for sharing.

Just remember that the gpx route includes a road we couldn't take: Jakkalsfontein 4x4 (the picture of the closed gate). Cross-check with the Google Maps track to see what is possible.

The mud was just another horror of the day. I think the only thing that caused the sand to steal the limelight from the mud was the shear volume of it. There were mud patches every now and then, but the sand seemed to stretch on forever.

Great report Zanie - thanks for the file got it here...

Great ride report

Ewald · « **Reply #34 on:** November 10, 2015, 04:02:24 pm »

This is the very best ride report I have EVER seen, well done. My reason is simple it had detail I as an Newbie (no shame) can use. I can note the actual route and use it.
I always find it very difficult to find places to ride and maybe over night and not get stuck without petrol.

I will use this, once again, well done. It was detailed and I am sure lots of dogs will use this info to plan our own routes.

Hi Zanie

Enige kans dat jy vir ons die GPX track oplaai sodat ons kan kyk waar julle was

Nice report!

Bring It On · « **Reply #37 on:** November 12, 2015, 08:41:15 pm »

Very nice RR indeed. Thanks for taking the time to share this awesome experience with us all.

That part of the Western Cape truly is a real Gem.

Well done ladies! Die sand kan 'n mens goed rattle as jy nie gewoond is daaraan nie, veral met 'n groot fiets soos daai. Maar as mens eers gewoond is daaran dan smile jy as jy sien die sand raak dik in die pad verentoe. En damn die Kaap bly maar mooi! En ja, Biedouw vallei is stunning in die blomme seisoen.

Nice photos! I'm looking forward to doing that Wupperthal road on Sunday. Hopefully it's sandy.....
