Ja so the long awaited get to know all trip finally happened. Early morning we met at the Pinehaven Garage, and met everyone, and greeted friends already met on previous rides. Was an excellent turnout - 15 bikes in total, with the KLR's (3) being th ebest attended. Actually there were two of each, except for the lonely AT of Gideon & the KTM of a guys who's name I have forgotten.(Sorry man - but he's not on this forum yet)

We stopped near Magalies as one of the okes had to offload his KTM (motoX) bike as it was not road legal.

The route we wanted to take looked rather daunting so Shark, Wino, Digital Dan, Louis & the guy on the KTM went to down to see if we?d get through.
The route was tough, even the KTM couldn?t make it. Getting the bikes out of there was a moerse job with lots of spills & sweet

From there we decided to head back to the canal 2 route and ride it in reverse sequence back to Harties. Sun city was somewhere in the vicinity?

The route along the canal was dry, no mud except for a few spots, but the grass was shoulder high when standing. Believe it or not ? there?s 13 bikes behind me somewhere in that grass?

Eventually we got to Upperdeck where we all enjoyed a hearty meal.
Harties had one of the sleuch open, so some lovely green water was flowing out the dam
