Kilkenny to Cape Town. By Motorbike through Africa for Charity. The following is the most recently updated list of those helping the project with equipment and expertise. Since a chance meeting on the shores of Lough Derg, Paul Grant of (soon to open) Naas Motorrad has been a great source of advice and support. An ex KTM off roader (recently a BMW convert), Paul has had extensive experience as a CAT Service manager in Africa. BMT (Blakestown Motorcycle Tyres). A very useful man to have in your corner.

Becstas Motorcycle (& Other) Adventures. Saturday, 26 November 2011. Gotm Weekend for Sydney Motorcycle Show. The plan was to ride up to Sydney book into the motel is Ashfield and then catch the bus or train to Darling Harbour to attend the Sydney Motorcycle show which is only held ever 2 years. The days leading up to the show weekend were very wet so we made the decision to drive to Sydney instead. I am glad we did this as it poured the whole way there. It would not have been a very nice ride.

Becstas Motorcycle (& Other) Adventures: Intro
http://www.becsta.id.au/p/intro.html
Becstas Motorcycle (& Other) Adventures. I never had any interest in motorbikes. In July 2007 I changed jobs, I used to get free parking at my previous job and when I changed jobs and started working in the city I had to pay for parking. Motorcycles get to park for free so I decided that I would get my licence. I had been bitten. I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would love riding a bike so much. (If I had know if was such fun I would have got my licence a lot sooner). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Becstas Motorcycle (& Other) Adventures. Monday, 7 November 2011. The Long Ride - Day 3. There was some over night rain in Broken Hill so we had a pleasantly cool start to the day. About 20 to 30 km's out of Broken Hill the temperature dropped by 3 degrees over about 10 minutes. I even had to put my heated grips on for a little while. There is not much to Olary. It used to be a gold mining town. Ange, Marilyn and myself at Olary. First fuel stop was Yunta in South Australia. There was plenty of wildlife ...
