Baviaanskloof

Post by toyford »

Well guys what can i say,had a incident free trip to baviaanskloof two weekends ago.I sure everything i say here you already know about your patrols.We had a very strong headwind leaving saturday morning but i tell you i have never been in a vehicle that is so planted on the road as the patrol. The patrol just gives you so much confidence in its roadholding and stability. There is so much power in it that a person can do second gear up the passes in baviaans.My patrol never even hiccuped once, never for once did i feel she was lacking in any area.I have been through baviaans twice before, once on a dual purpose bike and in another vehicle(patrol takes first place).The baviaanskloof area is such a beautiful place, you feel so remote and at peace in that place.We had perfect weather the whole time and not even cold at night.Gonna post some pics
