    Neck brace woes

    Don't know if it will help.  I have a Leatt neckbrace but also with non-Leatt  body-armour.  After i nearly chucked it all in te bin, I accidentally got to slide the back-brace/(extension?) between the backplate and the mesh.  And now it fits like a glove.  I'll try to upload some pics.

    Owning a yamaha is like......

    Die een is spot-on.  En nie die model of die Yammie soek baie geld om dit te doen nie.

    Damaraland 2015

    It was an awesome trip.  Well told.  Got a baptism of fire in the sand but was well worth it. Thanks again for organising the trip.

    Yamaha 660z or KTM 690R for newbie

    One thing you also have to consider, especially  if you plan to tour,  is  fuel consumption.  With the Tenere you'll easily get 20 km/l.  Don't know about the 690 but the 990 need to refuel about twice before the Yammie have to start looking for a pump.

    Taking the plunge head first: Palmwag, Namibia

    I bought my XT660 still wondering if I'm really keen on riding dirt.  I read a lot of great reports on here and I met some great people. (Like Mike and Tanya doing a round-the-world trip: https://earths-ends.com/ ). I even did a few 2 hours trips around town.  But no real riding. So, on Easter...

    An alive twatwaffle or a dead cowboy???

    Makes sense.  I'll definately look in changing my setup adding two small LEDS's lower.  I find that even small LED's are seen from quite far.  For instance, runway lights tend to go that way now.  Intensity is extremely good compared to the older bulbs.  But be careful.  If it's mounted on...

    Wanted - Namibia - Best & Legendary Eateries and Pubs

    Beste koffie in Swakop is by Village Cafe.  En n stuk Ma'se brood as jy rerig honger is.  Die res van hulle ontbyt is ook baie goed.  Walvisbaai moet jy n draai by die Raft restaurant maak.  Flaminke, koue bier en lekker pizza. Joe's beerhouse is Windhoek is baie nice vir die ambiance.  Maar...

    Soldier of Fortune

    1 SWASPES.  Die voet teen die berg.  Ek was n jong mannetjie op Otavi toe die eerste Elande en Ratels daar kom sit het.  Later was dit spoorsnyers, perde, honde en natuurlik die bikes.  Vir jare na onafhanklikheid het die voet teen die berg pragtig groen geskyn na die eerste reens.  Want...
