A fun weekend’s dirt bike riding!
March 16th, 2009 by Conrad Stoltz
I built a short Enduro track through a stream and some dongas on our farm. My mate Werner came over for the day and we rode till dark. Serious fun and hard work! I finished my long run 1st thing in the morning and had the day free for fun “XTERRA training”…
This was my last real riding opportunity as I leave for the USA XTERRA season on Friday. (20 March)
The summit of my farm at 2000m+. The road does not really exsist anymore, so it was a really tough (loose and rocky) climb. Call it “Roof of Wildebeesthoek”!
Werner van der Merwe did his 1st XTERRA last month- he uses XTERRA as training for this years’ Roof of Africa “HardEnduro”. One of the worlds’ 5 toughest enduros. I use “Roof training” as XTERRA prep. Or thats the excuse anyway…
My dad and I went riding Sunday morning. He is a big BMW fan, as you can see. We rode Robbers Pass and Watervalsrivier pass to Pilgrims Rest on his old 1979 BMW 800cc (Left) and new GS 1200 for brunch.
The Cavelien has landed.
