Wow - old girl get's around :thumleft: So good to see she went to a happy home. I see another Husky in my future soon . . .

Some Husky memories: First ride ever with MajorTom The old DeWildt gang Somewhere in Lesotho at top of Kao Vaarking about Lesotho trip with the Sauer Krauts Loved that bike!

Jou bliksem :biggrin: That brings back some fond memories, miss that bike . . .  :'(

Hi Being DS bikeless at the moment, I am looking for a rental DS bike (preferably a basic thumper like DR650) for a few days early in September to attend the Alfie Cox DS weekend. The few bikes I can find are all GS’s, which just wont do :biggrin: Any suggestions (I am based in Pretoria).

It took a while to edit into something vaguely interesting because there was sooooo much footage of bikes not really going anywhere, just sort of standing there throwing rocks about and boiling water. But this gives some idea how tough these EWXC events can be, especially if you are from the...

Great pics KK. Man, that was one tough course – those climbs were heartbreaking, and the bottlenecks were epic (will post a video clip of this later). I got stuck behind a guy who had a complete physical meltdown, completely blocking the line I was on, and I nearly killed myself getting past...

Hi The first round of the 2011 Nomadik EWXC Series will take place on the 26th of February at Arrows Rest, Hartbeespoort. This is the meanest, toughest enduro event in Gauteng, and if you enjoy watching grown men cry and fall over in exhaustion you will love this. Then again, the pro’s make it...

More vaarking around with Will and his youngsters: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb4rcOYgE8U

Main sponsor still the Howse Children Education Trust Fund (unfortunately rapidly heading towards bankruptcy), and planning to do EWXC, the odd WFO and Rudaman’s, and primary goal will be to finish Silver class at Lesotho National Enduro end of May. But vaark me, if I knew how fit you have to be...

Well done Plottie, got some serious talent there. And that GasGas is a stunner. How about a picture of Wayne's hands after the race ;D

Letti nearly beat Birch on a 450 4t (a BM nogal, plus time penalties and stuff), so on a 300 2t (a Husky nogal) he is my bet for the Roof. My prediction - Letti, Birch, Bolton. Jade is a machine, but he will struggle to compete with these x-trials guys - their lines through the technical stuff...

DS There is a well marked easy green route, so no problem - ask Kobus to clarify directions. There is also a well marked red route that is "interesting"  :biggrin: What's up with e-dirt. I mean, what's down with e-dirt?

Hmmm, I think we do it a bit differently up north. A typical EWXC course is about 12-15km of single-track, often along virgin tracks, mostly natural terrain, and riding varies from mild to wild. Usually there is a small endurocross section at the end of the lap for spectators amusement. Some...

This is the Edmund Hillary of adventure motorcycling - don't miss the opportunity to meet a true icon! I’m there like a bear! PS: And he is almost as old as Welsh  ;)

Excellent new trials (and enduro) venue, wonderful skills on display, but sadly not by me :biggrin: Last EWXC race this weekend - I am aiming for minimum 3 laps!

On sunday morning, starting at 9:30, there is a trials event at WildWest enduro track, which is between Joburg/Pretoria and Harties - good stopover for those going on a breakfast run. GPS co-ords 25 50”37.0 S                   27 59”27.5 E Directions- Midrand  William Nicol past Diepsloot...

N[]va Sure as hell KTM should repair under warranty. Shaft failure is a classic fatigue failure, and can almost always be traced back to a manufacturing problem – generally defects in shaft material or incorrect material used, else stress-raisers as a result of a machining/grinding problem or...

Truer words have never been spoken . . .  I sooooooo miss my expensive to maintain, chronically broken and very uncomfortable swedish/italian/german piece of crap.

Unfortunately decided to sell the TE  – there is only so much time to ride and TE was just standing in the garage getting bored, else getting hammered at De Wildt, so at the moment I am focusing on the enduro and trials riding, and my new toy is a beaut . . . But bring your beastie and come...
