    Anybody coming over to race this one in November?

    go to www.roof-of-africa.com for details

    There are bike for hire to competitors as we so you don't have to bring your own bike.
    (Unfortunately not Husky but for this race, you will be pleased)
    YAMAHA`s for rental available. Full service granted - for more information:
    Nico Pienhaar - rainbowclothing@dbnmail.co.za

    currently one USD will get you 7.8 ZAR so it will not cost you as much as the locals to enter and compete.

    Extreme enduro basically sums it up yes.
    Africa's Ertzberg or Romaniacs.

    the race has been run for over 40 years now with great success.

    Come and see for yourself....................I dare you.
    If you need a pit crew PM me and I will spread the word on this side of the pond.

    I remember racing it one year and also helping set up a Husky out of the crate with Butch Hirsch ( was the sole importer for Huskies into S/A) for Scott Harden from the USA. He had a list as long as my arm of how he wanted the bike set up. Riding anything bigger than a 300 --is HARD work.

    S/A riders keep us informed with any other links to the event. I watched some vids from the past events, its quite the show. Will your guy Gutzeit be there? He shows well at Extremo Enduro.

    All the top SA boys work up to this one. Gutzeit will be there I am sure, on his 450 Beemer.
    Mahoney, Curtis, Dick and about 500 others.
    Personally I am not doing it this year, DANG........
    Next year I will enter the geriatrics class if they still have it

    How about I get the organisers to keep in touch with you?
    What are you looking for? Updates, race entry forms or just the results?

    Nah, just as a fan, the website home should be sufficient, or if you know links to any local videographers or photo people, so we can follow and see all the good sections. Thanks Rob
