Soos dit winter raak raak my ry ook al minder, want ek is glad nie n winter mens nie omrede in die somer kan jy vir jou ligter aan trek maar as jy n lyf het soos ek kan jy hom nie dukker aan trek nie.  Mens lyk later soos n oorryste Muffin wat in n cupcake pannietjie gebak is.

So word Wouter se ride geadverteer en dit lyk baie aanloklik.  Ek wou nog altyd kleinplasie besoek het en eintlik is dit n skande as jy op Ashton groot geword het en nog glad nie daar was nie en tog so baie deur Worcester gereis het en nog steeds doen.

 10 PASSES – 1 DAY CIRCUS

---

we are a group of friends that does short breakfast runs on Sunday mornings, we are the Old Timers...still sparking after all these years.

We started our trip this morning 7:00 with one rule…you are responsible for the rider behind you

We decided on an extended breakfast run for a change, not having an idea what we let ourselves in for, we even made t-shits for the trip. Let’s do a 10 passes trip they said, it will be fun they said. If only we knew.

The last Country Trax Klipbokkop training weekend of the year took place on the weekend of 13-15 November, with quite a few BMWWC members participating. The 20 participants were split into three groups: Leon and JP took the men, while Lourens took the group of 9 girls. The view from KbK: Pic: dtv As Nina was there as well for the weekend, this meant Lourens could make 10 girls very happy over the weekend. The quiet before the storm: Friday started with theory

===The Group=== Geoff Russell (leader) – 1200GSA Michiel Bierman – 1200GSA Andre Ferreira – 1200GSA Andy Connell (sweeper) – 1150GSA Leon & Liza Kroucamp – 1200GS Anne Connell – 1200GS Sean Hidden – 1200GS Dave Hidden – F650Dakar Noelene Russell – F650Dakar Tiara Odendaal – F650GS '''Friday, 2 Oct 508kms''' We were set to have fine weather the whole weekend. We met at Lanner’s Landing in Klapmuts at 8.15 for 8.30 departure. However, Dave, coming from Stellenbosch, somehow ended up near Wellington and then finally met us about half an hour later. 1st round of strafdoppe already allocated to Dave.

''Note: This is not a BMWMCCC Club organized event, it is FYI''' It is almost that time of the year again. The very popular and successful Wheels Festival will be held again on 24 & 25 October 2008 '''Date:''' Sat. 24 & 25 October 2008 '''Place:''' Klein Plasie, Worcester We would like to take this opportunity to thank our supporters and to once again, invite you to join us for this special event. Last year (2007) was our first attempt to raise funds for the Pioneer School by hosting the Worcester Wheels Festival. It was a very successful show and people from all over South Africa brought their Old Cars, Tractors, Toy-Cars, Stationary Engines, Motor Bikes, New Cars etc. to be on display. This year we are again planning a very special weekend for all exhibitors.

We were suppose to be 5 bikes alltogether. We were only 2. Shortly after 7h30 we left Worcester on the N1 heading north. Through the Hexriver valley, with all the vineyards resting in the winter cold. Five degree's celcius to be exact. I wonder where the guys selling illegal grapes along the N1 get there stock from. Climbing up the Hex river pass at the northern end of the valley, it became even colder. The icy fingers of typical karoo cold kreeping into fingers and nostrils. Just before Touws river we turn left onto the Ceres road, admiring springbok grazing at the roads edge in the crisp morning air. Smoke wafting from cooking fires at the guest farm. The usual coffee at karoopoort allows opportunity to enjoy the karoo sounds of quiet.Karoopoort koffie: Sounds of silence Road surface like tarmac with very little dust allow for travelling at speed while admiring the views. 35 Km north the turnoff to the Koue Bokke veld via Katbakkies pass Turnoff to Katbakkies From the top of Katbakkies you can see history!
