18-20 November 2010 - South Africa - Port Shepstone, Eshowe

18th November
Am frozen solid from continuous rain and high winds, altitude mostly over 2km, but will live. Today was 12 hour ride, just to try and get out of the cold. Had few brandys tonight. Its always too hot or too cold on this trip!     


20th November
Just completed 4 days around Lesotho; going up Sani Pass, leaving at Quachers nek. Its all stunning wild scenery, fantastic riding country (albeit quite wet at the mo). Spent one night thawing out in Port Shepstone on south coast. 

Port Shepstone
