    Dynax, there are more than a few around but they don't check in all the time.

    Ajax, is one. Claims to be from Pretoria SA. Jean-Pierre is another, and he represents QingQi South Africa.

    I seem to remember a couple more but they escape me now. You also in SA?

    Ya know I'd REALLY like to visit SA and spend some time riding and taking pictures there. Maybe I'll look you guys up when I finally get the chance and time off to visit. I'm currently in Virginia not too far away from Washington DC.

    Free time? What free time? While pretty busy, I ride a Kawasaki Versys all over the place and do lots of weekend camping in the Appalachian Mountains. The leaves are changing color now and are always a pleasure to see every autumn.

    This is one of my favorite Autumn pictures taken last year around this time from the Appalachians. Lots of beautiful roads here too!

    Hey Carl!

    That looks amazing man! Is there a photies thread? I also got some pics from travels to put up!

    YOu are more than welcome to make contact when you get out this end of the globe. I would be more than happy to take you and show you some of the places I enjoy!

    There is an awesome bike trip from CApe Town to Windhoek in Namibia, it's quite a long ride, but well worth it. Lots of camping and scenery, especially in early spring. (read aug-sep)

    The route around the east coast from Cape Town is also awesome, there are some really picturesque towns and such, and PLENTY of whale watching in the right months.

    As for inland, well... um... hey...

    Hi Dynax, welcome!

    I play soccer with the african community in Beijing, some of them are crazy about motorbikes, but they only ride japanese bikes... and korean girls.

    You will be proud to know that the best soccer team in China is from Afrika (amateur ligue)

    Check www.africanboots.com

    Cheers!!
