so while the ironâ??s hotâ?¦ ;)

Barely 2 days after our Gamkaskloof day trip we were on our way again. This time a one nighter to Willowmore.

We decided to take the scenic route (of course) so we headed for Knysna

and then an old favourite â?? Kom-se-Pad.

Once again Mrs.TR had the camera and got some good shots.

We rode slowly admiring the scenery when two Dual Sport bikes passed from the front: Another maroon TransAlp 700 (there sure are a lot of them around these days) and a grey TransAlp 650. Both had panniers, topboxes, riders and pillions. Iâ??m so bummed we didnâ??t get a photo.

Some more scenery:

In De Vlugt we stopped for a bite to eat.

In this section we came across a Aprilia Corponord.

From Uniondale itâ??s a short hop on tar to Willowmore. We were riding with the wind in our backs and a song in our heart.

Then we came across another group of bikes. Honda Africa Twin, BMW 650 GS, BMW 1150 GS and this BMW X-challenge.

This is what these bikes should have looked like right from the start.

In Willowmore we met up with Yellowfever who was on his way back from a Lesotho trip.
