Archive of BMW Motorrad Club Cape (2006 - 2019)

This was to have been a trip I missed, but at about 4.30 pm on the Friday...(it had been a hellava week) I phoned Geoff whilst driving out of Stellenbosch with my staff in the Kombi, and miraculously he answered,...short chat: ...may I ride up tomorrow morning and join the group...Geoff: "I'll call you tonight". He phoned and gave me the go-ahead so I was up till a bit after midnight getting ready...aiming for a 4am departure, well was away by 4.20 into light rain/ heavy mist? The initial ride on the N7 was slow due to the poor visibility caused by the mist and my fear of back-ending an unlit vehicle.

Hi Lovies - Brenda here. Let me tell you about my 100 thousandth birthday spent on a trip up the West Coast. The tour was organized by Geoff (my hero) and was combined with the Offroad Adventures Motorcycle club - led by Greg Van Der Reis. I got to chat with a lot of new faces - not just the grey and silver BMWs - bright red KLRs, orange KTMs, a dapper black Yamaha XT. By the sounds of things Charles enjoyed the people that came with those bikes too... ==Day 1: Swartland 1-Stop, Vanrhynsdorp, Bitterfontein, Kotzesrus, Silverdoos== Anyway, it started early on Saturday morning, and I got quite a shock when I discovered that Julie was coming too. Charles had a really tough time of it in June when he did this tour, and I didn't think he would be able to look after me and his wife judging by his last performance.
