This angle gives a better idea of the incline

I'm sitting at my desk and my stomach is turning looking at that climb

Noneking, ek gaan 'n klagte lê by bestuur oor jou Ride Reports. Jy gaan my bankrot maak met al die planne wat jy my gee.

Dit wil voorkom jy "versleg" dan baie vinnig, want jy gaan kort kort op n nuwe trip om "beter" terug te kom!!

Noneking daar is min manne op WDs wat hul bikeing uitleef soos jy. Doen so voort terwyl jy kan.

Guys, go easy on Noneking. He's in the profession with the second highest suicide rate (just Googled to confirm, and it seems only doctors are higher).

Let the guy go ride his bike, dammit.

I have been on 4 of these Hardcore rides with mark Taylor and every one was awesome. I recognize some of the places on your photo's, thanks for jerking my memory again!

Step 1: Follow Noneking RRs.
Step 2: Create trips bucket-list using step 1 as inspiration.
Step 3: Build skill...lots and lots of skill.

A few km before Tshaneni, Lee did one too many wheelie and ripped his valve on the rear tube running low pressures. Sun was setting and we were less than two kms away from our digs for the night....

New tube fitted and as we pulled away, already tasting the first Sibebe, Lee indicated that his front was also flat. Saay indicated to Lee to sit over the rear wheel and nurse it to Tshaneni Country Club where the puncture could be sorted in the morning.

My folks lived down the road at Mhlume for 20 odd years. I played a few rounds of golf at Tshaneni in the 70's with my dad.

Tshaneni used to be a rice farming and cattle estate in the 60's and early 70's owned by Commonwealth Development Comp/Co-op before they converted to cane. I believe that's where the name Tshaneni (Grasslands) originated. Good duck shooting in those paddies.

Looks like you guys did quite a cross section from the lowveld to higher elevation.

Thanks for sharing

The Country Club still has a "colonial" feel to it. Really enjoyed our stay there
