Saturday last minute change of plans. Decided to go and do some cruising on cool roads east near Delmas and Bronhorstspruit. I usually do not take anyone there, Great for high speed riding or just chilling and enjoying the scenery ;)

On route about 4km from home on a single road i see this Corsa bakkie coming at a fat speed over the rough stuff towards me. I move completely left and slow down ??? He just drifts over to my side and Whack--he hits my right hand side of my handlebars. Fortunately i saw it coming at the last second and had lent my bike so far over i nearly fell off. I stop and see him racing along. I contenplate as to if i should chase him and give him the pepper spray treatment or not. I see he stops for Splash down the road and let's him pass. Well no use getting into a foul mood.

Danage to the handle bar Break lever guard ::) How lucky can one get.
