I'm not the most competent keyboard jockey...but I'll try my best at this RR! ;)

Touring Namibia must be right at the top of most adventure riders' bucket list!  :biggrin:

I've only been to Namibia 31 years ago, "vir Volk en Vaderland!" :eek:

Those my vintage, will know what I'm referring too. :eek:

About 12 months ago Noneking was putting pressure on me to join their group in riding the Kaokoland. ???

I had the right tool, KTM 500, it was not registered yet, and I prefer to plan properly for such an event. ;)

As [member=19649]Hardy de Kock[/member], the boss-man from Specialised Adventures, was putting together packages for WDs, I opted for the May 2019 Kaokoland tour, which was later changed to April 2019. :thumleft:

Riding the Kaokoland is not for the faint at heart, and is best done supported. :thumleft:

Myself, Bertie Rietveld ([member=16016]Straatkat[/member]) and Johan Harmse, opted to fly from ORT to Windhoek on Thursday, the 11th of April 2019. :thumleft:

Specialised Adventures (Abbreviated :SA) trailered the boneys for a small fee from Pretoria to Windhoek, via Loxton. ;)

A big group convoyed from Loxton to Windhoek, and a 3 riders trailered from Cape Town to Windhoek. ;)

I'll cover the actual day's riding, as well as bike preparation and personal items at the end. ;)

Our ride for today. :eek:
