Off Road Ride : BMW MCC : West Coast "Jurg se Kaya" Seafood Extravaganza Weekend : 17 - 19 November 2017

Finally - our destination!: Jurg se Kaya on the right, with some of the sleeping shelters further along

An Off Road Tour not to be missed! One of the most talked about "off road" rides on the Club calendar.

Come and slay the sand fairy once and for all. Your ability to ride sand will be hugely enhanced on this weekend and at the same time have lots of friendly helping hands to get you up and going again should your bike bike get tired and lay down..

Just having fun

Join our fellow Club members for another unforgettable Tour up the West Coast to Jurg se Kaya where we will be entertained by Dewald/Jurg and his band of merry men. We will also be spoilt with the seafood delicacies that the West Coast is famous for.

Here is one of the last trip reports :

Partners

We have over the years had many requests from "partners" asking to come up to the Kaya by vehicle. This has never been encouraged.

This time however we will again encourage a limited amount of "partners" (and members who do not own dual purpose bikes) to join us by vehicle and camping in their own tents. Guys before you invite your wives please explain to them the rustic nature of the Kaya and it's facilities as we don't want complaints because there are no hairdryer points, scented toilets, etc.

Please note that other than the Bikes we ride no other bikes that you may want your "partners" to bring to the Kaya to ride once there, will be welcome. (Plastic bikes, Quads, etc)

Please remember that the back up vehicle will not carry extra passengers, it is there to carry riders who's bikes are "tired".
