Day 1: Centurion to Aliwal North, tar via Bloem to pick up a friend along the way.
Day 2: Aliwal North to Rhodes via Lundin's. Awesome pass, very scenic. A bit rocky in places, but nothing too bad.
Day 3: Rhodes to Swartberg via Naude's. A bit more sketchy than Lundin's with some sharp rocks. Filled up in Mount Fletcher, which reallly is is a PROPER SHITHOLE.
Heavy traffic:
No photos of the rough parts for obvious reasons.
Day 4: Swartberg to Nottingham via Lower Lutheni - amazing road with awesome scenery.
Day 5: Nottingham to Clarens via tar.
Day 6: Back home, via the Vaal
We didn't really know what to expect of Lower Lutheni rd, and could easily have pushed through to Clarens, making the trip one day shorter, but either way, it was an AMAZING trip.
After all of that it did take some doing to get my bike and gear clean, and dust free again. EVERYTHING was covered in a very fine dust, almost like what you'd find in south Namibia.
