Every reunion held at the Inn traditionally ends with a sheepbraai<br />
and vetkoek dinner in the Lapa, preceded by a Velo quiz<br />
and an award ceremony for two categories, the Sholto Rothbart<br />
shield for the most desirable Velo at the reunion and the best<br />
Velo restoration at the reunion. In both cases, previous winners<br />
are excluded. This year the Linley stable’s 1926 model K, the<br />
forerunner of the famous KTT was voted most desirable, while<br />
Dennis da Silva’s superb 1958 MAC took the Phil White best<br />
restoration trophy. Quizmaster Roland Kivell then handed out<br />
ten little sealed hessian bags containing Velo components which<br />
the quiz teams had to identify by feel. To keep the ladies happy,<br />
Roland also threw in some fascinating general knowledge questions.<br />
These activities kept us busy until the sheep was done and<br />
the vetkoek and syrup ready. Thus ended another successful<br />
Velo reunion.<br />
The weather was kind and the camaraderie great. We were very<br />
happy to see Peter and Dorothy Vlietstra who drove up from<br />
Port Elizabeth to attend and also to have been joined by VMC<br />
members Steven Helm, Gavin Walton, Guido and Martin Kaiser<br />
and CMC Natal members Douglas Watson and Dale Maxwell,<br />
who all rode bikes to Fouriesburg and contributed to making the<br />
gathering a success.<br />
Depending on the progress the Free State Provincial government<br />
makes with the promised repairs to the R26, we may return to<br />
Fouriesburg next year, but the present state of this road is unacceptable<br />
except for adventure riders…<br />
So, we shall wait and see.<br />
