Planning a gentle cruise around the Inanda Dam this saturday morning. This will be mostly tar and slow and steady. A perfect ride for any newbies who want to join and any experienced riders who dont mind a slow sight seeing tour. Myself and Gunda Gunda will be starting from Fairway Motors in...

I've been itching to try out some back roads along the Tugela for some time since a close friend showed me the places he used to ride many years back. I thought this Saturday would be a good day to take a slow ride along the track along with anybody who's keen for a gentle ride. This should be...

I started hatching a plan to do this ride some time back when a business trip to India became a distinct possibility. I have always wanted to ride a Classic motorcycle over a longer distance and I have also always wanted to travel across the western coast of India, What better way than to...

A work colleague and I are off to India tomorrow morning on business. Since its been a dream of mine for quite some time to see the countryside in India we have made all the arrangements to travel from Mumbai to Bangalore on rented motorcycles. We both planned on something nostalgic but as it...

Good Morning I recently aquired myself a very good condition 2006 KDX 200. The bike is stock standard and runs like a dream. Its been meticulously maintained and is as clean as the day it left the dealership in 2008. Yesterday I took it for its 1st proper ride, performance is great...

Ive got my heart set on a 2nd bike, more specifically a plastic for the weekends when my mates want to play rough and the 660z is just too heavy. Been looking at some KDX200's and have seen some good examples and some really bad. Loving the idea of a 2 stroke for its pure simplicity and fun...

I decided somewhat hastily and foolishly to join some mates on a ride in Inanda this Saturday and what I was told would be a calm and not too technical ride turned out to be a ride through heaven and hell simultaneously. I should have been worried when the bikes that showed up at the meeting...

Since I have this Saturday free and can't make the Mtunzini ride on Sunday I've decided to go do some exploring around the MX track in springfield park. Can anyone enlighten me as to the entrance and where it is as well as the awesome looking twisty track off to the right of the circuit? Looks...

After some last minute planning on Friday I decided that a good ride was in order for Saturday morning and started planning to return to the town where i grew up, Mtunzini in Zululand. I left Durban this morning at 7:30 and after a quick fill up of fuel and some liquid nourishment for myself I...

Anyone in Durban keen on a ride on Saturday? after seeing everyone else having such a lot of fun in the sand etc. I'm keen to do something slightly technical and non painful. Hate riding around on my own and would love some others to join. No route planned just want to ride, don't care where...

Can anybody in the Durban area please advise me on where to go for training on the basics of the K53 test in the Durban area, I'm happy to travel a little to get the training done so Toti, etc. Is not a problem, just within reason. I've managed to book my bike license for the 31st of march but...

I'm planning an early morning ride on Tuesday to Richmond from Durban, anyone keen to tag along. No route planned yet but am open to suggestions. May stop in at Light flight in Cato Ridge in the morning and take a FoxBat for a quick flight over the Tala valley if the weather is good and an...

I have searched the web in vain for a definitive answer to this time old question and so far all I have managed to ascertain is that the different tyres are preferred by riders of different skill levels, dependent on the bike and the conditions, but nowhere can any of the information actually...
