Hoop julle het darem die bikes van die trailer afgehaal vir die trip :pot:

Ok, looked at a couple and fitted some but in the end I decided on BMW's protection Jacket at R2760-00. Acerbis Koerta at R2170-00 was my second choice but the BMW jacket is just more comfortable and slightly les "bulky" than the others with very good ventilation similar to the Koerta. Will try...

Seems that I will spend some Moola this coming week. Doing a clubride on Sunday to Rooiberg so it will be a good test. I am sure this will be far cooler than my Rally Pro when travelling through the Karoo in December

Very nice looking boots indeed

Any particular make of body armour?

I am doing a 4/5 day trip down to the cape through the Karoo in December. I know that I can expect high daytime temperatures and want to know what upperbody protection I can use ??? I am looking for something very light with lots of ventilation

Drix, have you considered the Gearne SG10's? Very comfortable

Ok, I have made up my mind and the planning for my trip down to the Cape(Somerset West) is done. I would like some of the experienced dogs to give me feedback on this and please do not hessitate to give some critisism where needed! The only day's riding that is certain is day 1. From there I...

Thanks Tonteldoos. I really want to do the Karoo and do some roadside camping. Not too worried about luxury as long as I can have a bit of a wash and shower to keep the flies away :imaposer:

I do not really mind as long as it is not too technical. Mountains and desert plains would be great

I have got 10 days available to do this trip. I am new to this forum and would like to discuss this trip further. Not much time to do the planning and would therefor need as much info and help as possible. Thanks for the feedback sofar and please let more be coming my way

I am thinking of going down to Cape Town in December and need some advice on interesting places to visit and nice dirtroads to ride. The plan is to stay off the black stuff as much as possible. Camping wherever would not be a problem. Even next to the road. Has any of the dogs done such a trip...

I am looking for information on a lightweight, good quality 2-man tent for my trip to the cape this December. Price range R2500 to R4000. Any suggestions?
