Ok, so when you strengthen the rear of the sub frame remember that somewhere something has to give... :xxbah: On my last trip I couldn't understand why my seat kept pulling away from the tank (more than it normally does) so a while into the ride I shift my fat ass back, look down while I give it...

Was an amazing memorial run held by the MAWC today. A strong word of warning and concern was shared by a representative of Western Cape's road saftey. A biker has died for every week in this year in the Western Cape alone. Think about that everytime you have the need to prove you abilities on...

So today I rode with my buddy who was running in his new KTM1190R. We get to Botrivier and enjoy a great breakfast and chat about after care service from KTM vs BMW. As time came to leave my old faithful fired up but then died. Turn of and on I realize there's no distinct whine from the fuel...

So, today on this beautiful sunny Sunday I take my wife for a ride to Red Star on the road to Wellington. This is a place I've stopped at many times before, for their good coffee and country style atmosphere. Well sadly things have changed, as it seams to becoming a hippy jol with nothing...

Early planning for an extra ordinary rally. CMA Western Cape has changed the venue for this year's Freedom Road Rally from Stillbaai to Struisbaai. Main reason is because so many felt that Stillbaai was just too far for a weekend away with the bikes and the family. So here is your opportunity to...

I would like to suggest we beat the GP guys by a long-shot with a get together on 16 June somewhere in the Tankwa. Who's in and where do we stay? (Middelpos hotel maybe?) Maybe even all meet at the Tankwa Padstal for pictures then those that can't do an overnight can go back home while the...

What you doing Sunday morning ?!?!? This will be an all tar ride. :ricky:

The Iron Butt Association - Worlds Toughest Riders While discussing this here I was wondering just how many people here enjoy this kind of riding. To say "I don't see the point in it" would be like saying why do the Tour De France when you can take a month and get to know the country side of...
