The Wildcoast
To get to the coast along the Wildcoast, we have to make our way over hills with relatively narrow dirt roads. The landscape is completely sprawled as there are a lot of people living here. [...]
From Graaf-Reinet to Oribi Gorge
The town of Graaff-Reinet and especially the Karoo Nature Reserve we liked a lot. The following ride over small slippery roads in the backcountry are sometimes exciting, but always in a lonely and beautiful landscape. [...]

The Midwest 3/3
If the diesel arrives, queuing up with a potential requirement of 1'000l is not really appreciated. The Angolan way of mending our tire holes was very impressive in terms of both efficiency and durability! Some [...]
