The route... the route... the route is on fire...

Since we don't have space for a road map on the bikes and there are too many wonderful places to visit in South Africa (which makes it rather hard to decide where to visit), we decided to hug the outside borders of our country for the most part. In other words: "We're keepin' left!".

We wanted to go 'round anti-clockwise to go back in time, but we were invited to a wedding of good friends of ours, Gloudi and Pieter-Louw. Since it takes place on the 9th of January and it is in Patensie in the Eastern Cape, we'll have to go around clockwise to make the full circumnavigation.


Below is the preliminary route map:

  1. Enjoy your dream holiday!! I don't know what fuel range you have on the bikes, but you will encounter some serious stretches without fuel..

  2. Thanks KF, appreciate the wishes! The tank holds close to 10L, so we should be able to cover 300km easily, but I'm thinking of taking a 5L jerry-can with just in case.
