OK so now all the actor have been introduced      we gathered outside Uitenhage for a ride to the Kirkwood area there are some real great road to ride around kirkwood like the one off the R75 Blue Cliff gravel to the R336.

Now the main dude in our group Andre the contractor is not really happy on gravel    we stopped in Addo for breakfast at Lenmore really a great place to relax

After breakfast the manne convinced the contractor to accompany us up the gravel road to the Zooberg Inn  as all u dogs know that have ridden this road the gravel is real good condition

The under fed youngster on the right od the picture is Morne rally star son of the well developed fellow in the green stripped shirt

After  a cup of tea the contractor was convinced to ride with the group down to the elephant station 

The first stop was about 6 km from the hotel when the contractor wanted to change or re design the his bikes suspension    after a skyf or two and a chat the suspension had cooled and we moved on .
