Tough Practice for the 2024 GS Trophy challenge.
Recently doing the Old Voortrekker pass between Louvain and the 7 Passes road we came ran into our recent woman's GS Challenge winner who was spending the day practicing for the 2024 challenge. This is some tough practice and perhaps why South Africa continues to dominate this event each year.

3 x KTM500's - 800km - 2 days across the Karoo after record rain falls.
zhlédnutí 556Před rokem
The Karoo , located in a semi-arid region of South Africa, which normally has around 200 mm of rainfall per annum has just experienced 300 mm in the last month. We thought it would be a good idea for a 2 day trip on our KTM 500's and do 800 km in 2 days through the most iconic passes in South Africa such as Prince Alfred's pass, Swartberg Pass, Seweweeks Poort, Boslyskloof Pass, Meiringspoort a...

We decided to leave the KTM 500's at home, wipe the dust off the big adventure bikes and take them out for a weekend exploring around the Garden Route - South Africa. We would do a few famous passes such as Rooiberg Pass, Swartberg Pass and the longest pass in South Africa - Prince Alfreds pass - as well as some awesome smaller passes no often mentioned such as the Jan Muller pass over the Gour...

Great video!.... cool bikes, route, views, music, editing!!!.... job well done! Thanks!
Thanks Sean, always a pleasure to edit and relive the trip for a few weeks later - while the toe heals. LOL
Hope that you recovered and won't forget the lesson - drive slower on such roads and stop if you want to admire the view.
Awesome stuff Gazza!
Thank you.. hope you guys are well
It doesn't like the wet leaves. Gonna need something closer to a dirt bike tire
Love your work , Gary. Always a grand soundtrack to go with the visuals. From a 70 yo old-school thumper rider rotating between a DR 650 and a gen 1 KLR 650, always on the backroads (many of which are featured in your videos), self-supported with camping rig...
appreciate the feedback . And to think i have only been riding offorad for 16 months, i should have given up the road bikes years ago. This is far more enjoyable and the scenery we get to see is amazing.
After going up Devil's Bellows Pass, did you go down Katberg Pass and then across to Seymour , and up Michel's Pass into Hogsback ? If so , do you have footage of that?
Just to show that men are not the craziest creatures on Earth :D
Absolutely awesome...mooi manne pragtig man
I wish I was there. Beautiful video, Gary. Thank you.
Gary , thank you for this beautiful video...Very spectacular and very well done for putting this together with some descriptions. Very interesting 👌
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like a lekker ride!
Apparently you don’t know about California’s killer 33! I’d put that up against any of your dragons tail or infamous 22
Glad you liked the video
Really enjoyed that! Lekker video!
Thanks for sharing. I presume an old video as that road is full of potholes now. Brings back great memories of no cops to worry about and most cars move over to let you pass. The very best times of my life was spent in ET.
yes, an old video - remembering the days when we did not need an adventure bike to ride on tarmac
Love the video and the fact that I can see how fast you ride... But it is not in all of the video?
As vezes somos 2 só nos 40 idades e nas brutonas
Olá eu sou o farras ou Miguel Machado mac biaje
Felt that ride by watching this
Thank you for taking me back to SA with this video, Gary.
Amazing! Hope to see it in live in a month or two.
how are you?~you made outstanding - do you wanna more subscribers?- see you later. :))
Phenomenal.
Only you and the bike. One of the few cases when freedom can include "and". I envy you, Gary 🤍
Epic
I would've given him carrots!
I love this
Excelent ride
Fcukng awesome
Wow, that puts my riding into perspective. 180 into a corner and 244 out of it! Amazing ability.
are you guys still riding up there? would love to see this pace in real life #unreal
Line Kings .....
nice ride
Looks awesome and fun
mmmm I can't get enough of this video this guy's ride safety it's applied on high speeds
That"s whats it"s all about, experience freedom...Free your soul...
9 Minutes from Sabie to Hazeyview is a super good time! Yup that is how we ride in ET. Friendly cops allowing bikers to have the best times of their lives without a worry to slow down. Notice the cars being aware of the bikes and allowing them the space to overtake safely. ET is my perception of heaven!
oh how lucky we are to have these roads in our back yard!! Awesome video guys!
Nice..I know that road and always wanted to ride a bike down there sadly never got the chance
Nice... a reminder of why I started riding....
Very good riding, anybody can go fast in a straight line,this thou was an amazing display of balls and stupidity all at the same time.
watch out!!!! Zebra crossing up ahead.
Congrats, great riding. I lived in RSA from '84 - '87 and we did spend the chrismas holidays at "Jock of the Bushfeld" doing the "22" 3-4 times up and down each day. Bob Hardy was the man to beat at that time. Beeing from Switzerland (lot of bikers and turns) and having good material Kawa GPZ1100 we did pretty well but never did beat Bob our Hero.
Ecellent riding .... My hands got sweaty just watching this !!!
Jasus boet that's some seriously close riding... Not my personal style (cruiser not a racer) but to each his own. Nice Video mate ride safe dude !
Nice roads and awesome video guys !! A mate of mine here is from SA and these are good memories for him. Cheers Deon !
Excellent , incredible speeds you guys riding at on the 22 !!
Awesome riding ... you guys rock !
