I'm taking my good lady on a spin through parts of our beautiful country over Easter 2012.

Running from CT to Jozi via Cederberg, Shelly point (to visit friends), Clanwilliam, Prieska, Lesotho and Clarens.

A mix of tar and dirt is good for the soul :biggrin: (How else do you get to see those stunning mountains)

Thanks to the Dogs that helped plan this. Special thanks to Operator for storing and looking after my bike in CT :thumleft:

Thanks ETS for offering your home :thumleft:
