Thanks guys, I'm getting excited! Only two weeks left! I really appreciate all of the support, and I look forward to meeting and hopefully riding with some of you. I'll check the forum as often as I can, and hopefully get a phone or something. Cheers!

OK, thanks for all of the info. Lot of the places near the stadium are booked, save for a day or two, so I just booked a place in Ansteys. I think that'll be a good starting point at least. So now that's sorted, time to find a ride! :D

Yeah, I was quoted at like R30,000 for a couple of pretty modest looking hotels down in Toti. I'm thinking of splitting up June a bit, basically all of the backpackers spots in Durban are available until the 12th, then that's when things get dicey until about the 20th, then things start to open...

Thanks for looking into it for me, I really appreciate all of the help... I'll have to buy you a proper South African beer (or two) when I get in. A friend of mine suggested Amanzimtoti as a possibility. I'm fine staying a little further away, and prepared for some pretty rough accommodations at...

Cheers man, congrats on that!

Yeah, that would be cool... I'll be in Durban probably for the entire month of June, and then heading down to Port Elizabeth. If you know of anything for rent, definitely let me know. Otherwise, its going to be camping and hostels for the month. I haven't really had much luck finding a bike for...

Wow, that would be amazing. If I can procure a bike by that time, I'm in.

What's up NMEXPAT! Another Yank... I'm coming out from NYC, checking out a couple of matches as well (Germany vs. Australia in Durban). C U there.

Thanks guys. I'll email Marshall, really I just want to see if I can sort out a cheap used bike, or cheap rental. I've been looking on gumtree to see if I can find a bike to buy cheaper than a rental (top gear style). Still trying to sort out the details, will be in Durban from probably the 28th...

Thanks guys!

Thanks Badger, definitely will do.

OK, well that's positive then.

I hadn't seen this section yet, I've just been posting in the new member area! Anyway, I'm traveling around Durban and PE from June 1st until August 10th. If anyone has a dual sport or anything that they'd be willing to rent me, or if anyone has a suggestion, I'm open to hearing it. I'll keep...

BBG, BBQ, doesn't matter to me... grilled meat is good.

Awesome, yeah I can't wait to get out! It'll be a life-changer I'm sure. Anyone in Durban or PE (or anywhere in between) hit me up. Anyone have any motorcycle rental recommendations? I'll be out for at least 2 months...

Haha, thanks Fudmucker, that's what I'm hoping for. Also, I hear a lot about South African beer, or real beer as I hear it's called, so I'm looking forward to seeing what that's all about. And, I'll check out the ride reports. Robski, I'm coming from Brooklyn, so we'll see  :P Anyone on the...

What's up everybody? I'm about to embark on an extended summer trip to South Africa, from the States, and just wanted to jump on some motorcycle forums and see what everyone is up to. I'm hoping to do some riding while I'm in town, so if anyone has any tips on how to enjoy South Africa for a...
