Wow!! This looks incredible!!! Sounds like you had an awesome ride!! Looking forward to seeing more pics and to read a bit more about the ride...
Great report Russ, thanks !!When I heard about the ride I was so tempted to come with, but only for a minute as I realised that I don't yet ride well enough, but next year I want to come with
Well done on all of you for riding so well , and having such a great time too. And yes Harley does ride unbelievably well for someone who hasn't got knobblies and hardly ever lifts his bum from the seat , must be coz he's a Kiwi
This looks like an awesome trip to remember.
Great report and pics guys.
Well done.
Now I know why I was dehydrated the next morning, he made a bloody fire in my tent! Anyway as Russell points out here a hell of a trip with magic accommodations, Baviaans Easter weekend is going to be a smacker because we are going to stay at even better places. Well done Russell, Tristan where are the pictures! And for the flying dutch…. no new Zealander, thanks for the dust!
Jealous.
I called Rony a few days b4 the trip thinking I was going to be missing out on one of his incredible trips. He said it is EXTREME. I understood (like Rynet) that I am not ready for such a trip. So maybe next year I will be ready.
Nice trip report and photos Russ & Tristan
