4 years ago on about the same weekend I first did this trip, and I have been keen to do it again for a while now.

So when my mate Kevin called me and asked me if I felt like riding this weekend I immediately suggested we do this trip I had been thinking of. kevin said he was keen, so it was decided that seeing as the weather looked great on Saturday, me Philip and Kevin would trailer our bikes to St Bernard's Peak Hotel and ride up into Lesotho from there. It was agreed we would leave from hilton at 06h00 Saturday morning.

The next bit of PT was to get hold of the various farmers whose land we needed to cross, as well as getting access to they key for a locked gate along the route. By Friday afternoon reluctant consent had been obtained and a plan made to collect the all important key.

Offloading bikes, getting ready and the foothills of the Drakensberg:
