Well it's that time again; the night before the start of a trip that's been in the planning for three months... and the thought that is going through my mind is: what have I forgotten to pack?
This trip started off with just my good friend, andrebo, and I going to join his brother in the Cape for a tour around the fairest of all Capes. For those who have followed previous ride reports, andrebo has upgraded from his trusty Honda Shadow to a BMW F650GS single and then on to a 1200GS.
However, two other friends and a brother-in-law have "volunteered" to join in the trip. The five of us leave at Sparrows tomorrow; two GS1200's, a GSA1200, KTM 1290 and of course the Fazer. The route is as follows: -
