Yesterday I went for an early morning ride in the Magaliesberg region. First took the road past Avianto that leads to the Rhino Park ? man, all the gravel roads in the region leading to the Cradle of Humankind are being tarred!

Through Magaliesburg and onto the Thorndale road, which runs into Naauwpoort. On the road I passed a blue scrambler type bike, 1200gs and ktm950 who were also out on a scenic run.

The gravel roads in the area are in such a good nick, I was secretly wishing for some rains to fall (and some money out of the sky to sponsor knobblies).
