Baviaans kloof Eastern Cape

Baviaans by Suzuki

I should have a bumper sticker on my bike that says "My other car is a Suzuki".  This report describes a part of our second honeymoon trip to Hogsback, where we rode through the Baviaankloof in our Suzuki Jimny.

We rode from Cape Town to Willowmore along the R62, with lunch in Barrydale at the Country Pumpkin.  The food and service there is always great, and the owner rides a BMW and looks after bikers.

At Willowmore, we checked in to The Willow Historical Guest House.

Rough and Ready off road trip, Boesmanland adventure!

Wellington to Cederberg Oasis. Leisurely drive to Chantal and Gerrit to sample their outstanding hospitality. It’s your call if you want a  500g or 800g T-bone on your plate that night.

Day 2 
Cederberg Oasis to Tierkloof. Through the Cederberg valley to Wuppertal and on to “Die Engelsman se graf”. Up Moedverloor past the “Riet huisies” to lunch! After lunch we do the loop down “Skaapie mee” pass and head to Tierkloof.
