One thing I did learn on this river trip, is that I need a rooftop tent. The amount of sand I brought back with my normal tent almost forces me into 4H in the drive-way

Too much power
Too little brains

Broke the clutch
But at least enjoyed it before this happened

Flatbed (hulle moes my verkeerd verstaan het, want daai ding sou my nie in die rivier kon optel nie)
Sondag aand by Graham, en teen vanoggend 10uur was hy weer reg.

Moet sê, uitstekende diens van G-tech! :thumbup:

Thanks again to Dirk and Tinus for the arrangements, and to Chris Boegman, Alex Botha and Marius Bijker for the occasional guidance, not to mention all the friends for the great camaraderie that is always a feature of any Forum event.

My apologies to all the poor souls who got stuck in my convoy and had to do a pretty tough obstacle course to miss the demonstrations, only to find out that due to my kak navigation we had spent 2 hours of sweat and blood to gain exactly 200 yards and come out on the same road we had been on, and still shy of the demonstrations.

I also apologize as I took very few photos this year. Just a few of the rock garden and some of the drag race. Here are the first few.

Geen probleem, daai eerste stukkie het my opgewarm vir wat gekom het, en het my baie meer self vertroue op die ou einde gegee
