[ricster]

Hi

I'm going down to the Cape (Stellenbosch area) from the 20th to the 27th December. I'm going to drive down from JHB..... cause I wanna ride at Atlantis !!!!

Anyone around at that time who knows the dunes???

Please give me a call or sms, as I don't always get to check my mails ( been on leave since the 7th Dec)

Hi David,

I posted this on the nissan4x4 site ( http://www.nissan4x4.co.za/forum/forum_ ... p?TID=8887 ) and seems like the 23rd Dec is going to happen. Andre (webmaster) is going to organize the permits. Send me an sms or reply on the nissan4x4 site.

I see you in Stellenbosch.... I'm visiting my folks at Zevenwacht Village Kuilsriver/Stellenbosch. I hope to see you there!!

Contacted Andre and he will get me a permit I've send you a PM

Had a stunning day @ Atlantis and it was great meeting you Cedric & family

Was only us 2 Patrols, 2 Hardbody's (Lawrence & Andries and his dad) and Andre's V8 Disco - Man that V8 sounds nice! I think the only thing that came close was when Cedric planted his right foot and that turbo 4.2 puffs smoke and rockets forward!

Dis baie nice om saam met Andre daar te wees - hy ken die plek goed.

Bly julle het dit geniet

Ek stem Herrie - Die man is 'n gentleman - hy het ons alles gewys en doen alles sonder om te probeer windgat wees (... en hy mag maar want hy kan!)
Ek sal enige tyd weer saam met hom 'n roete pak

Can you guys do a repeat on this one on 8 January - as Oompie will be 'laying over" in CT and apart from meeting you guys - sommer enjoy the Atlantis dunes as well?
[this will go as its own thread too - AND also on "Kampvuur" [Wegry's ne Afrikaans forum for all things off-tar]

[David]

Jammer Oompie - ek is weer terug by die werk die 8ste
Vra bietjie op die Nissan forum of Community4x4 of daar nie iemand is wat gaan nie?
