For the unbelievers: my bike can finish a ride [Lambert’s Bay]

17 February 2018 - 5:03pm — Zanie

This trip has been written up already, so this report is more a “bits-and-pieces” piece on all the interesting things that happened from my perspective.

I think Geoff may have been nervous about me and Lance joining his group on the Lambert’s Bay ride, given our track record on the last 3 rides with him:

Lambert’s Bay Leaves us Longing

12 February 2018 - 11:56am — Plainjane

[Bmw Motorrad Club Cape Town – Lambert’s bay overnighter – 10 & 11/02/2018]

Waking up on a Monday morning after a weekend like the one we just had, it feels almost insignificant to have to get dressed in clean clothes, drink coffee from a dust free coffee mug and put on a computer to download emails and enter the adult world of a routine based day. Just yesterday we were covered in dust, never minded by bad hair and dirty clothes, yet the feeling was one that money couldn’t buy and the thrill was child-like. Today we adult again.
