The last time it was on the trailer, was in the Underberg Area on an extremely muddy and very technical road to another Timeshare holiday.  Mr T does not like to see his BMW on a trailer!!  ;D  So this holiday was the second time that his bike had been put on the trailer to a week's timeshare...

Hubby (Mr T) needed his bike at Wilderness and I could not drive the car, so the option to trailer the bike to Wilderness was chosen.

Sani Pass is a monster!!  It took us nearly 2 hours to cover 13 km!  I fell twice!!  Trevor fell 3 times, but Ashley came through unscathed!  Sani has a grading of 1:6 and the corners are very sharp. Our bikes being 1200’s and loaded, were heavy. So you have to keep the momentum and pick the...

The “ride” down was a nightmare!!  Sliding down dongas and clay.  Struggling through waterlogged paths and then I hit a flat rock and BANG!  I was down.  Check out the puncture as proof.  Words cannot describe this “road” – 3 hours 45 minutes and 35 km later we were basically out of...

We left Underberg on Thursday morning with mist threatening which we went through between Himeville and Sani. After clearing the SA border post we tackled Sani Pass which was rough but not bad until we reached the last 2km before the top. The last section was badly washed out leaving loose rock...

We managed to point Trevor`s bike in the right direction and set off. After a few river crossings we were amongst the pine plantations at the bottom of the valley where coffee was made and “ happy” mushrooms were found. We followed the plantation roads and eventually found the tar between Ugie...

Our overnight stop for the 1st April was the Mountain Shadow Hotel situated at the top of Barkley Pass. All Trevor`s pre planned dirt routes had to be tossed due to wet conditions that had prevailed over the last few days. The discussion was that we would have to stick to the tar going via...
