Me, a friend and his wife went for a trip around Cape Town today, they on a Yamaha 650 and me on my ceebee. We left just before 12H00, the original plan was just to go for some fish and chips (the best fish & chips in Cape Town) in Hout Bay. It's about a 100km round trip. We took the scenic route there, taking it easy around the 12 apostals (that's a series of hills just behind table mountain). We arrived at our deatination and spent an hour strolling around. When the time came to go nack home, we decided to take another scenic route over Chapman's Peak drive, that ended in US taking another scenic route and another and another. 300km and 6 hours later we finally arived home.:D We made a lot of stops along the way.

Here's some pictures taken ontop of Chapman's Peak.

More Pictures taken on the day.
On Chapman's Peak, you can see Hout Bay in the left corner.


The view from Victoria Drive, just behind the twelve apostles.


& Looking back towards the 12 apostles & our bikes. There's some street vendors in the area.

Thanx, that is the small Tenere with you, right?
I think it is. I'm not certain though. I'm not big on the dual purpose scene.

Today we went on a trip to Porterville, it is a farming comunity about 120km from Cape Town. The world hang gliding championships are on there at the moment, so we went to go and see what they are doing. Sadly, we were a bit late to see some action. There were 2 crashes and the day's event was cancelled. Luckily we managed to convince a brottish guy to take off for us.

Well, getting there (to Porterville) wasn't a problem, all tarred roads, just the stuff the ceebee was made for! But the event was held on the mountain just outside of town and it's about a 20 km trip, all off-roar!! So... Me and my ceebee went 4x4!!
