"Be afraid. Be very afraid." It was the pre-trip get-together at Geoff's house, and Geoff had the floor. And no, Geoff was not talking about the sandy parts of the trip - it was the strafdoppe he was warning us about. But more about that later.

The trip to Jurg se Kaya on the West Coast is one of those 'must do' trips on the club's calendar. This year was no different, and the trip filled up within a matter of hours.

From the archives - This report took such an enormous amount of time to compile, reduce photos etc, I thought it worth putting on the new site, to wet your appetites for the September 07 West Coast Trip. Oh yes, I added a few extra photos! The BMWMCC West Coast Tour June 2007 has ended. Everyone survived in good health and some minor scrapes n bruises. The group split up for the rides to their respective homes at 16H15 on Sunday at the Vlakvarkgat bush pub on the R27. Most of the hardware came back intact but there are some bikes with some eina minor damage that adds up to a wack on the wallet. Ja, die manne van staal se staal het toe bietjie seergekry!
