Just see if it also looks ok.  It's still a working progress and my office is full of manuals on how to create a website.

Well here goes the ride report

A sunday trail riding with Trailrider, Andre and Johann on his farm

We are located in a beautifull city called George. Here so many things is happening
that hours feels like seconds and weeks feels like days. I dooped this week the kuier
week. WE kuiered and kuiered and kuiered. The wednesday I made a quick turn at
Trailrider's house to finilize the weekend plans when LanceZA and his partner in crime
visited Trailrider and Mrs Trailrider.

We had such a lekker kuier that Mrs Trailrider took a fotograph of the entire show
happening right in front of of her eyes

LanceZa and his partner in crime was riding from East London and are on their way to
Die Hel. Lance came with a KTM 950 and his partner in crime came with a Yamaha
XT660. Earlier that night I went to Johan Troskie my partner in crime to check out his
new bike that he bought. It was a Honda CTX 250. Brilliant bike

The plan was to go to Attakwas Kloof the weekend with Trailrider, his two sons Andre
and Johann joined by Berm Rooster from the Mossels Bay area and would ride with my
bakkie to the Bonnievale farm and camp there until sunday afternoon. But as far as the
bad luck goes I went vir a vinnige draffie Saturday morning and saw that there is a very
cold breeze outside. We decided to cancel the camp and go trail riding on sunday.
Saturday afternoon Trailrider asked me to join him for a quick ride with a moerse lekker
bike Honda XR 250 Tornado

Johann came to my house and waited while i insert oil into my bike. The problem was
that i accidently put 2L oil in and only had to put in 1L oil. So while I was pooring oil into
the bike, the oil suddely came out and we were laughting while I had to recover some
of the oil that was "looping" out of the bike engine

Now It was time to take on the Montagu pass

This saturday was turning out to be a good saturday afternoon ride and my kettang was
behaving itself very good for the duration of the trip. Here me and Trailrider bewondered the
bikes (well our eyes only had one bike and the color was red) But my Yamaha can tell riding
stories like a tannie op die stoep about all the stront that we pulled of together me and her.

Trailrider decided to take a quick stop at Amanda's grave and he took a couple of pictures
on the Kiki Gadget (camera)

Here we admired the view and now it's time to go back home. Trailrider
decided to test the bike going down the last part of the Outeniqua
mountain and then ride the bike up to the Tolhuis again to test the
horses power on the bike.

So this Sunday morning came. And this is George! What to do what to do? Well
Trailrider decided to make this a action packed Sunday full of Trailriding
adrinaline adventure pumping. Today me, Trailrider and his two suns Johann and
Andre will go ride on real trails (not fake ones but real ones) with the bikes. I
picked up the Honda 85cc and 75cc and headed straight towards Trailriders
lovely beautifull lovely settling plaas outside George. The weather was
unbelievable and the sun was shining. I are was so exited for this trip.

This is the most stunning photos my camera has ever taken. The sea in the backround and the
pritty big wattle boom in the foreground giving shade to the human being
Believe me this childern can ride a bike much better than some grownups can do. Andre and Trailrider in front.
Andre and Johann rode like proffesionals
Now we started to take the trial ride around Trailriders's farm lands and set off to the
most scenic and rare rides that i've ever been toe. I decided that I hate my bike on the
open dirt roads but love it to bits on this type of road

Here Trailrider is posing with the maginificent Honda XR 250 Tornado of a bike.
Now we rode towards a lovely dam and decided to do tricks. I took a moerse
opdraande but while in the opdraande my bike vrekked and I donnered neer. With
my face red and another attemt towards a less toughter hill, I over revved and
while doing that wheelied aswell and fall down once again.

The previous stop I tried to help Small Johann turning his bike around and while
doing that I accidently pulled the throttle and almost ride myself over and the
best of all was that I was not even on the bike. Poor Small Johann also had to
jump off to avoid a accident

Trailrider took the opdraande like a pro. He took that hill like if it was his woman.
Did it like a proffesional. You can see that he was a motocross champion back
then and still carries the legend with him wherever he goes

The group of bikes relaxing in the afternoon sun.
After this we went back to George and was "gaar gery.
Today we had some nice experience riding a uphill in sand only and that was
quite a learning curve.
Took the bikes home while Trialrider was guarding over the transportation we
arrived home safeley and I went to wilderness to have some drinks with my Neef
and told him all about the adventure we had this sunday

Thank you Trailrider, Johann and Andre for a very fun ride.
While I drove back my Kettang once again moerred af!
