Organise Yourself

Bookings have just opened for the BMW Clubs Africa BMW Bike Fest 2012 – to take place 27 to 30 April 2012 – in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape.  (27th April is a public holiday, and so is May 1st).

The last two years this was held in Oudtshoorn, and was by far the best event Julie and I have attended.  The program for Grahamstown promises new terrain, and the festival atmosphere that only Grahamstown can offer. 

We shall be running a Bike Setup afternoon this coming Saturday at SupaQuick in Parow.

We shall be running a Bike Setup afternoon this coming Saturday at SupaQuick in Parow. 1300 on.  (It is a workhop not just a chat session).

There has been considerable interest shown on the rides for assistance with setting up foot pedals, handlebars, levers etc etc for each rider's particular style.

We'll also do a general check of the bike's condition and answer any questions that there might be.

If you're interested, let me know either here on the forum or directly.

Watch this space for further info (we may need to split the groups over more than one day if there are too many bikes).

R50 nominal fee for Mike's workshop staff fund.

To answer the question: the TraTra drif is definately a place to celebrate: it is beautiful next to the river; sandy, soft camping site on the bank of the river, fantastic setting with a steep rock face occupied by a large troop of baboons, clean drinkable water, a waterhole to swim in and it stays in the shade until about 8am this time of the year.

The All Bike Race Day is the only event in the year exclusively for Motorcycles and is undoubtedly the highlight for many riders. “Amateurs” are able to compete via a registration and MSA licencing process in place specifically for this event which attracts a far larger field than the regional race days. In addition the event is run along the lines of a biker’s festival with a variety of stalls and festivities for the entire family.
