Grotman Relocating

I accepted a new job offer in the Western Cape.
Sooooo much gonna miss the Nothern Cape !
Sooo many golden memories. . . . . . . . .
Such good friends . . . . .

But

Life is a journey . . . . enjoy the ride



At 10H00 the truck from Lowe Lines arrived.

 
Nothing to do while they pack everything into boxes.



The 3 musketeers waiting their turn
 


The truck eventually left at 23H30 with our whole house
 


Arriving at Zandvliet the next day at 16H00 and starts offloading

Playing with the Plastics

Recently swopped my electronic drum kit for a Yamaha 250 YZ.
The best place to play with these, are in the sand, so we went and found ourselves a dry riverbed.

Trip in the Field

Ean and me, bought an old Honda 250 XL last week.
Ean is learning to ride and I thought it good to go for a ride in the field.
Challenging terrain, thats how you learn the fastest.

Also kitted my bike with the new soft luggage system, so that I can get used to it.
Tiaan also rode with me, on the challenging places, I let him off and he took some pics.








 
Helped Ean out with the 250 up this hill which was very steep and scattered with lose rocks
 



Finally reaching the top.


 
The Honda don't have excellent brakes, and on the downhill, Ean put the Honda down.
 
 
Clutch lever broke off
 
Rode the bike without a clutch, till we got to a place for a pickup.
 
That was exausting !!!
