JMOL gave me a call and invited us (Vis Arend and Mev Vis Arend ) on a trip to Elliot / Barkley East which would include Otto du Plessis Pass.  This was one trip that we could not say no for and the date was set and arrangements were made.  JMOL invited two of his friends, David and Basil (Bike on the forum).  We could not wait for the weekend to arrive.

It was ready set and go as JMOL and his friend left East London around 06:00 to Stutterheim and we left from King William’s Town to Stutterheim where we would meet up with each other and continue our trip to Otto du Plessis Pass.

Our route was from Stutterheim to Bolo, then to Tsomo, Ncora dam to Cala, then Elliot where we would say hallo to GlenInk.  From there we would do Otto du Plessis Pass and head for Barkley East and sleep over for the night.

In Stutterheim we joined JMOL and friends

Time to adjust the tyre pressure for the gravel roads, I wonder what happened to the hair?
