Coast to Karoo Offroad Trip

Charles Oertel's picture
Only 1 days leave necessary, yipppeeee!!!!!!!!! Have not been so excited about a route for a long time. This ride should offer everybody what they are looking for in an off road ride and is very "Pillion" friendly. So no excuses guys and girls bring your partners along. Yes I know it is directly after the Anysberg weekend however it is the only 4 day gap I have in some time. The route will be as follows (approximately): Thursday 1st May (Workers day): Depart CT for Ceres via some dirt sections. Then to Op Die Berg over Katbakkies Pass to the Calvinia road and on to Sutherland where we overnight. Friday 2nd May : Depart Sutherland to Merweville on to Prince Albert via some little used roads over the Swartberg Pass to Calitzdorp where we overnight. Saturday 3rd May : Depart Calitzdorp to Van Wyks Dorp, Herbertsdal to Albertinia, Stilbaai on to Arniston and overnight here. Sunday 4th May : Depart for home via the Hemel & Aarde vally and back onto the tar at Grabouw. All accommodation (Where possible) will be on a B&B basis and will be in recognised establishments. Pillions are VERY welcome. Approximate costs will be (B&B) R1000PP including back up vehicle, but will be confirmed. I need to get the numbers together quickly so.............................. If you are keen please let me know by replying on the Forum or directly to me on russell@aroma.co.za Remember that it is a long weekend so accommodation is at a premium so I really need to have your info at the earliest opportunity. Please supply your's and your pillions name as well as an e mail address please. Look forward to hearing from you. Geoff.
