Howzit, Myself and 2 mates are planning a one or two day trip from Witbank up to Blyde River canyon next weekend. We are looking for some off-the-grid camping spots up in the Blyde area. Does anyone have any recommendations? Not too keen on the whole Forever resorts thing. Also, some jeep...

Wow, thanks for the really insightful response! The score thing was more tongue in cheek... At the moment I am doing about 70% tar but that is going to be changing in the near future. I'd like to get tyre's based on the riding I'll be doing and not what I'm currently doing. How much mileage do...

Okay so that's - Hidies: 2 Mitas: 0 :peepwall:

Thanks Herklaas, going to check them out. How's the price difference from the Mitas?

Hi guys, I am looking for some help regarding my 2009 Transalp 700. I'd like to replace the tires depending on if they need replacement, I'm still learning the in's and out's of bikes and so I am not so sure at what point I should replace tires. I'm going to be doing a tour to Maholoholo and...

Any of this still available? I’m riding a 2009 TA. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Okay, thanks again! My plan at this point is to put 2 options together. The first being the one I have linked below. The second, I'm going to wait for you to let me know how the gravel is for the Jeep between Semonkong and Clarens? We'd like to do as much gravel as possible, even if some...

Thanks once again. Ive read the thread regarding valuable information for Lesotho travels. I found it extremely informative. Thanks! We are not yet sure if we are going to go to Semonkong, but it is possible. The waterfall may have sold us. Your advice and knowledge is priceless, thanks...

Loser, do you possibly have GPX file with fuel locations available? I can then maybe add it to my Google maps file. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Thanks for all the help Losper! Really appreciate it.

Awesome! Thanks so much Losper :-) After your first response, we changed our route to go along the purple line as you suggested above, this with the thought that we could ride more gravel. I think it'll be good to mention that it'll be 2 riders, followed by a Jeep Wrangler that'll be carrying...

Thanks so much for the info Losper! I think we'll probably head along the yellow route. Regarding the red line and it being great tar, is there an alternative for some more dirt as opposed to tar? Even if it means completely changing the way we would get to Ficksburg? Potentially even an extra...

HI all, In the planning stages of our first multi-day trip and we are keen to do Lesotho. I'd say our technical ability on bikes is not amazing so we'd like ot stick to tar but all some jeep track with maybe a couple river crossings. Could anyone give some advice/recommendations on the route...
