Hi my name is Theo and I started riding again after a very long break. Bought a Z13 Kawasaki in 2004 and really enjoyed being back on a bike. In 2009 I bought a K1200GT (flying brick) and in 2010 I finally decided that gravel roads were the better option and I got that F800GS that I've been drooling over. My wife Emmie then wanted her own bike so she has the 650 Xcountry and enjoys it.

Good day, I've been riding for about 3 years. I'm just looking for advice and saw some good dialog here.

My name is Pieter Snyders, 52 years old and resides in Johannesburg. I have been riding motorcycles since I was twelve. I have been to Country Trax for off road training courses and I have attended quite a few of the GS Challenges and Rallye Raids. I have traveled almost all of South Africa, have done other African countries like Mozambique, Namibia, Malawi, Zambia etc. I have also traveled 14 odd countries in Western and Eastern Europe, basically from Isle of Man to Bucharest in Romania. Riding dual purpose bikes is in my blood and a great passion of mine.
