Hein Eksteen lives by a simple motto: it’s not an adventure until something goes wrong, and things tend to go wrong quite a bit for Hein and his trusty old KLR650. In this series of motorcycle travel tales, he tells in his own unique Spike Millgan-like style of his plights into the deepest, darkest lands of Southern Africa, usually ill-equipped and completely unprepared, exactly as he likes it.

If you have some time, please read these stories. They were originally published in Offroad & Adventure SA and Bike SA magazines, and we will be posting them all over the next few weeks in this thread. Scroll down to find more.

In this first story, he explores the Tankwa Karoo desert, complete with tales of a donkey shepherdess, bushman skulls and the ghost of the Tankwa Robin Hood.
