    Around The Middle: Hugging Lesotho

    I've unfortunately recently sold my F800, but I'm already keen to organise another trip. A major bucket list is to do a trip around Lesotho - basically hugging the border as close as possible. We've done JHB - Rhodes via Sani (east) before, and have done JHB - Rhodes via Wepener (west) before...

    Trailer Rental for Easter

    I'm looking for a trailer to rent over the Easter long weekend. We want to drive to Rhodes with the bikes on the back and then spend some time in the area with them. Anyone know of a reliable and not too expensive option?

    Our video from Clarens BMW Motorrad Weekend

    We've finally managed to put together our video edit for the BMW Motorrad Days event held in Clarens last year. So... just some notes beforehand: BMW gave myself and 2 friends the 1200GS Trophy to ride from JHB to Clarens for the weekend. We made a bit of a longer trip about it, and ended up...

    My impression of BMW Motorrad Days 2015

    Hi guys, been following the thread a bit, and haven't had a chance to comment yet. I organise the film crew that documented the event - we're not officially part of BMW at all, only documented the event. We had a tonne of fun - not just in the shooting but all the other stuff around it. We...

    Waterberge on F800s Video

    This is a SUPER old video of a ride we did back in 2013.  I haven't had a chance to edit the video until this weekend. Have a look at our ride - leaving Johannesburg to Waterberge and getting lost... not having a place to sleep and bumping in to some funny characters...

    When last was Old Mill drift pass ridden?

    Hi guys, We're keen to do this ride as an option to the BMW Motorrad Days event. We'll be staying at Glen Reenen Guest camp and thought of using this route to get into Lesotho to visit Afriksi. It looks however that one has to pick: Either Old Mill OR Afriski as the timing simply won't work out...

    Get Lost: 12 days/3,000km through Eastern Cape, Transkei, Garden Route

    Limacon - that's not a bad idea. We did have a more-or-less route planned, and I don't think we did anything that you couldn't find on the main tracks. Everything was pretty straight forward. I'll plan some GPS routes and send em through though

    Rear Brake Caliper on F800GS

    I'm on 40,000KM. I can't think of a specific event that would have caused this - Unless I've been riding with them like this for the past few weeks and they've been shot to shit... Thanks for the links to that site - checking it out now.

    Rear Brake Caliper on F800GS

    I just got a quote from the dealership to service my bike - R40,000! The main cost seems to be the braking components. new discs and new rear brake calipers. The calipers alone are in the R20,000 region. Anyone else had any experience with this?
