Hello there,

I'm a Dutch XLV600 Transalp rider from Amsterdam (Netherlands that is, not Amsterdam, Mpumalanga ;)). For my study I will be doing research near Grahamstown this November and December. After my fieldwork I'm planning on traveling another month (January). My dream of course is traveling by bike, but with my budget (student) I'm not really sure what the possibilities are. Renting is an option but the rental websites I found are mostly European/German companies and pretty expensive. I could also buy a cheap bike and sell it afterwards, but this is quite a risk for one month of riding.

Does anyone know other options? I would appreciate all the help and ideas, and of course if you have a nice trip (SA, Namibia ::)) planned  for January, and a spare bike, let me know!

Bye, en alvast bedankt!
Niels
