Hi guys (and girls?)
This week I took collection of my first bike - my beautiful 2003 Dakar!
I found you guys on Google and have signed up in the hope that you're as friendly as you say you are!
My name's Christopher J Combrink, I come from a cycling and running background - both on and off road for both disaplines. Photography is also a passion of mine and I hope to get my fix for the outdoors and photography from the seat of my Dakar!
Now I'm going to make my way to the air-filter replacement how-to to get things going 
Hope to see you on the road (and in the birt)!
Hi Christopher
Welcome to the forum and the BMW Motorcycle Club Cape, things are a little slow this time of the year. However keep in touch and look out for all the activities on offer early in the new year.
In the meantime enjoy the Dakar!!!

Which side of Town are you from??
Hello Gents,
Thanks so much for the warm welcome!
@Dave, thanks man - I'm sure that the forums and also activities are a little slow this time of the year - the Kaap shuts down to a stand-still even more so than normal ;P
@Andy, thanks boet, as soon as I have my licence, I will be joining up and see you lads in the flesh. Booking today :)
@Peter, I'm keen on the workshops and things, altough I'm sure that it will come easily as I cycle - a LOT! I'm always keen to learn though, I'll be sure to ask questions too!
@Zebra, haha small world? Perhaps we actually know each other - even if only by aquantance? I did quite a bit of research on which bike to get before buying her and I am glad to report I have ZERO regrets so far! What a gorgeous beast!
@Rene, yep it is my first motorbike I've evern owned. The last time I rode a bike I was 14, in a forrest and didn't get out of first gear ;P So yes, this' definately my first!
@Geoff, I'll be joining you guys as soon as I'm 'street legal' ;P I live in Woodstock, Upper Eastside and work in Newlands. I get all over though - but try to stay in CPT as much as possible.
Thanks again everyone for the warm welcome and sorry for the late reply but as you pointed out - things are quite this time of the year and I managed to take a couple of days off ;P
