Kyknet Safari 4x4 had a program last night and a few days ago on Moegatle.... in the rain !!!
It is on again on Saturday at 4pm.
Last night, the DSTV scheduling went wrong (again).
On the schedule time it was Taliep Peterson's music!?

Hi Christo,

Went to Tshipise this weekend to visit the in-law’s. Much warmer and the water was great. There are lots of discussions in the pool every morning so you should have enough entertainment.

I saw the Kyknet program rerun on Saturday.
Andre de Villiers drove the "Shake-shake" obstacle in wet with the 70s Cruiser.
The hind wheels of his car really do not flex much and he hit the front bumper.

He also drove "Ryperd".

Then later the day, it was sunny again and dry, he drove "God se Pad" (up and down @ 43deg angle)
But first he showed the video of how not to do it, i.e. the white Hilux DC that rolled over on the descent and fell on its back, ontop of Alex Fullard's red bakkie!
That particular clip is apparently not available on youtube anymore?...
