Bike ride to Sun City

Wow, I havn't posted in a while. Sorry Jackie, I know you're probably the only one who reads this :-)
I forgot to tell you about the motorbike trip to Sun City. It happened on the 19th of April. The meeting point was atr the Sasol fuel station where Hendrik POtgieter and the Krugersdorp highway cross. We had to be there at 7am, but as usual, we overslept and only woke up at 6:40!
Nevertheless - we stopped there at 7:15am. I've never been so quick in my LIFE!

After a quick grouping to discuss the rules and route, we were on our way.

We stopped for all the smokers and slow ones quite a few times along the way, we must have travelled at a top speed of 80km/h. There were so many "Think Bike" official marshals among us, that it looked like a spietkop conference!

Pic taken at one of the quick stops.

We arrived in a mass of motorbikes at sun city and enjoyed free entrance. Apparently the initiative was so successful that Sun city invited us for another big arrival in June with prizes to give away etc.We had breakfast beside the pool at the Cabanas hotel and only 1 drink - it's too expensive...
We spent the rest of the day at the Valley of the waves riding the supertubes and the waves - woohoo! This is the balcony of the inside casino area.
We left there at about 4:30pm and arrived back home in the dark. A very enjoyable trip and my behind wasn't even sore!
