We met as usual at Ryder in Hillcrest at 7h00 am to leave by 07h30.
There were 9 bikes , 3 x 1200 ADV , 1 x 1200GS , 4 x GS 800’s and 1 KTM 690 and I had my stepson Dan as pillion and cameraman.
We dropped down into a chilly valley of a thousand hills ( 6 deg) and wound our way through to Nagel dam which we skirted and headed to the Lion Park. From there we turned off at Ashburton and skirted Pietermaritzburg and followed the Duze River to the bottom of Albert Falls.
We stopped at the Amble Inn for coffee and a superb breakfast with Des and his wife. I can recommend this biker friendly establishment for a decent stop.
We then headed out past Bon Accord site and up through the plantations and came out near Howick. We had a stop to refuel and say our goodbyes and then slabbed it home.
Lekker ride as usual and thanks to all that joined for the day.
