Once again I share your view. But the adventure rider category is a whole research project (I don't necessarily agree with your implied view what research is). I have been researching this phenomenon since 2004, but my latest field data is from 2007, when I became ill with cancer. Since then I...

Fully agree

Thanks,  roxenz. Katastrofiese is indeed correct. Afrikaans rusted since I had to switch to lecturing in English 14 years ago, but it is still no excuse. Gelukkig is die artikel darem nie 'n katastrofe nie. ;)

Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance is a classic and Persig's only great book. Read it in my student years, and again in 2006 while in hospital (was battling cancer even then). Have you read Hunter Thomson's book about the Hells Angels? Has fallen from grace a little, accusations of...

If you want the article, mail me at [email protected] The document is too big to load on the forum.

Am working on an English adaptation for the Journal of International Motorcycle Studies. Will post on the forum when it is ready.

Skipped the Tsitsikamma toll gate last year, siren was set off and officials gave chase. Unfortunately their Bantam bakkie could not catch my 1200GS. Wife the moer in for me. See they have now extended the booms so a bike can't slip past.

Hi Also came short in the mud on Elandsrivier route in 2005, but we had managed to cross the berg from the rocklands side. Will upload a photo as soon as somebody tells me how? Bakkie in the picture (local people) was stuck and had to be removed the next day in spite of us us pitching in to...

Couldn't agree more. It is the man, not the machine!

Mis na 9 jaar nog steeds my 1150 (net so 'n bloue soos joue). Vrou se ook dis die lekkerste fiets wat ons gehad het. Geniet haar!

Would have liked to attend, but find myself in the PTA East hospital bone marrow transplant unit after a relapse. Thoughts go out to Denise, children and family.

Watty finally lost his long battle with cancer, but he never lost his fighting spirit and remained positive till the very last. Mooi loop, Watty my ou varsity maat. Denise en die kinders, ek dink aan julle. Ryperd

Watty, bakgat naweek, goeie organisasie, stunning venue, great mense wat lekker kak kan praat oor die dinge wat saakmaak in die lewe. Ryperd
