Me and a couple of friends went on an amazing Adventure Mike trip to ride some of South Africa’s well known wonders. The aim was to ride through the Drakensberg mountains in KZN on dirt tracks, to ride the infamous Sani Pass into Lesotho, to ride on dirt roads over the Maluti mountains in Lesotho, to ride the amazing tar road pass to Butha-Buthe, to go through the Golden Gate Highlands National Park in South Africa and lastly to visit Clarens in the Freestate. And we did it!!! It was tough and tiring, but mostly because we did it all in three days. I suggest adding another one or two days. It is worth it! I have so many stories to tell. No picture can capture the true experience. Here are some of my memories…
Here is the video if you like or have a look at the photos...
Hi Frans, Cool Blog. Myself a a few mates are off to Lesotho this weekend. Your blog looks like we are in for the time of our lives and some awsome dirt riding! Any tips for Lesotho? Cheers mate,
Hi Kevin, firstly I would say, spend as much time as you can in Lesotho. It is an amazing place, and has amazing dirt roads. Some easy and some seriously tricky. Go and see the Dam by driving on the smaller dirt roads (but be patient). Some roads might be indicated as Tar road, but they are not. Ride the mountain pass near Butha-buthe. Take as many pictures as you can. Remember that it gets very cold on the highlands. Enjoy all you can and let me know how it was...
