I got that proper riding feeling while standing there with a rumbling tummy, shivering, on top of a majestic mountain and looking out over a beautiful valley.
OK so this’ll be a short report as it was a short trip. Rain was forecasted for Sunday so we didn’t know what to expect. It certainly looked like […]
It was a chilly start to the day, 6:30am and I was on the road in full leathers to the N1 One-stop where we were going to meet up. Indicator had decided that the IUB boys were getting far to soft and he decided an Icicle Run would soon toughen us up. Arrived at the […]
Indi, Pierre, Axel, Gill, Henesia and myself participated in the first annual CMA economy run organised by the Strand/Gordons Bay/Somerset West chapter of the CMA on Sunday.The weather was OK, if a bit windy. We met at the Firlands Service station and as we were a bit late we had to fill up and set […]

I hope everyone that attended the fest enjoyed it as much as I did. I think this festival is going to get bigger and better (it’s the first time it was held).
We met Andre and Mariette, riding his newly resprayed Intruder in Kraaifontein at 8:30 after riding all the way from the Strand in heavy […]
Only two IUB’s from Cape Town and one from Randburg attended the 2000 Buffalo Rally. This is a trip report from the guys that rode all the way from Cape Town. They were me, Chris (BeetleJuice) riding his beautiful, stunning, awesome and highly capable 1998 Marauder and Simon (Axel) riding his equally stunning and capable […]
Thursday 27th – Tuesday 2nd May
THURSDAY 27th
Cape Town
I left 5:30am in the morning after having the bike serviced, carbs done up and new clutch fitted during the previous week. Half an hour later I was cruising down the N1 Freeway when everything died on me including the headlights. Not fun doing 120km in the pitch […]
