Got some awesome video footage of our last ride for 2014 so I thought I'd make a short little report to share.

As some of you may already know I have recently acquired a BMW.  It makes an awesome braap sound and is seriously cute! I love it. It's like a mini SE :cat: Anyway what better way to test out a bike than to take it for a ride on your favorite route!?

Bushtrotter, HSK and I go for a ride in the hills around Pretoria. It's a slightly technical ride and there's plenty of mud. So much fun though! I even managed to do a little wheelie, yay!  :ricky:

What was not very fun is when I didn't see the exposed railway track under the muddy water. The front wheel slid out completely. It's a bit of a rookie mistake and I should have seen it coming. I didn't though and I went down like a sack of shit. First things first, the bike is A OK! Myself... Ego was bruised a bit, so was my eye, hip, leg etc. No worries, got back on and kept riding :D

What a way to end the year! Last fall, first ride, last ride 2014. Hopefully 2015 is just as, or even more epic :)
