Good day to all of you!
I am Lodie de Jager, living in the beautiful bushveld town Naboomspruit in the Limpopo region. I moved here four years ago and I don't miss Pretoria (or any other city) a second!
I am riding a KLR 650 and did nearly 15 000 km's since March last year. To say that I am happy with the bike is an understatement.
As soon as I've figured out how to upload a photograph I will do so.
This year is going to be a great year. On 15 March I'll leave Naboomspruit and start with my journey across Africa to Germany. I give myself three months. Whether I am going to stop after three months? We'll have to wait and see. Thanks to wonderful colleagues, Lize and Suzanne, I can take the time off, and if they pull finger (bad English?) perhaps I can stay on the road a bit longer!
My philosophy on my journey: Why rush? Why proof anything? It will not be the fastest run over Africa, I will not be the first to be anywhere along the route, I am going to ENJOY every second of the ride. Bad times never last, but who says good times cannot last much longer?!
I will be honoured if you would join me on my trip by following it on my website www.naboom2germany.co.za
Well, I wish you all many thousands of accident free kilometers, sunshine on the back, money in the pocket, peace in the heart, and the urge to go discovering with your bike.
