Lekker! Was nice to see the dam overflowing like that, and yes, it was a very acceptable temperature over on that side!

13 Bikes started off at the BP garage, 19 people. At Witbank one bike had to turn back.
Abe Coetzee did a stunning job as sweep and nobody got lost.
The temperature turned at 2.5 degrees and everybody felt great when the temperature started rising.

Halfway at Witbank

Brakfast - at last!!

Remember - the wiplash is very pronounced at the back - some very nice highspeed catching up to do.

Hi all, nice to see Loskop dam overflowing, I am now staying in OZ (Perth)and therefore havent been around there for a number of years now. It is nice to read about and see photographs of some of the roads I have travelled on in the past (unfortunately not always on a bike). Enjoy and ride safe.
Geolero- I have to post more . . .
