Swartburg to Sea day 2

Everyone was up and early for our trip to Sutherland , after a great breky at the Mddilposs hotel we headed for the petrol pumps ,only to find the power was off and we could not get any fuel so we made the decision and headed now the road to Sutherland,

On arrival at Sutherland we found that Ken had had a puncture and my DRZ had developed a softening of the rear suspension (no comments here please), at this time I was also now carrying Harries Chain guard that had fallen off of his 1000 V strom.

Then the K...K began the navigator and his now 2 assistance got us hopelessly lost and we end up on a farm, the farmer must have thought the world was coming to an end when all the bike appeared on his front drive way. This changed very quickly when he realised we were not riding Harlies and were a bunch of Good blokes on an assortment of Bikes. After back tracking for some time we found a road that lead us off to the N1 , this story is not over yet, Greg tried to see if he could make the BMW 800 fly , this was not very successful and some minor repairs had to be done , and Ant had a run in with a pissed off rabbit much to Ken`s amusement.

After about a 25 Km dash along the N1 and entering a nondescript farm gate we found ourselves on a 2 path farm track that we were assured by the Navigator and his assistants was the correct road.

After numerous stops for navigational conferencing and the navigator getting wind-gat on the hond and falling off, much to the amusement of all,( If he had not been stuck under it we would have take photos), we did finely reach our destination at Price Albert only to find accommodation in this town over priced and un friendly, except for Wendy at the Olienhoff rest camp and chalets here we were charged R150 for the night per person, except for Angus who got a no charge night because he had to sleep on a dodgy blow up bed that kept going flat , a great dinner was had and we went to bed.
