QUE SERA — AUGUST GS RIDE<br />

DRIX PRETORIUS<br />

Over 30 riders pitched up for this twisty turny ride. The idea<br />

was to have a slower ride on all the hidden paths south east <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Pretoria</strong> and finish at the biker-friendly Que Serra for a short<br />

ride home afterwards. With so many riders (and a lost soul<br />

who missed the start and kept phoning to find out where we<br />

were – “in the veld <strong>of</strong> course!”) there was going to be a lot <strong>of</strong><br />

stopping at turn-<strong>of</strong>fs and therefore we had to make sure everybody<br />

understood the <strong>Club</strong>’s ‘second rider stops’-procedure.<br />

Onwards we soldiered<br />

and as is tradition with<br />

a GS ride, mud will be<br />

found, even in winter.<br />

After many<br />

twisties and not<br />

so many kilometers,<br />

we took the<br />

shortest route to<br />

We turned onto the gravel quickly in Irene and the first stopwith-a-view<br />

was soon after that. From here the ride started in<br />

earnest and all the single-tracks and jeep tracks in sight were<br />

included. Left, right, left, right, disappearing amongst the tall<br />

grass, and some playing on the little hills at the Star Crater.<br />

Que Sera where we were in<br />

time for breakfast for a<br />

change. The smiles and white<br />

teeth underneath the Gauteng<br />

dust showed that we can<br />

have fun even in the winter!<br />

This was also the last <strong>Club</strong><br />

breakfast ride with our<br />

Brazilian friend Bruno …<br />

Ride well Afrazilian!<br />
