Hi Folks, Im traveling from JHB to Prieska and I'm hoping to find a stop over for a few nights along the way where I can camp and ride some local trails, and maybe even do some fishing... Does anyone have any suggestions of farms, resorts, or MTB trails in that part of the world? Any suggestions would be welcome. Many thanks, Pete.

Hi Djuice, I live on the otherside of the country, but recently I have been looking at Riemvasmark on google earth as a bikepacking destination. You seen to have a lot of knowledge about the area, if you dont mind I might contact you again sometime in the future when I get closer to planning a trip over your side of the world. Many thanks, Pete.

Hi T_Boss, Thanks for the reply, I will defiantly check out the places you have mentioned. I had a look at your website and I must say, the Richtersveld tour is very intriguing. I would like to contact you and ask a few questions about it. Many thanks, Pete.

Hi Folks, I live in Hoedspruit, and im looking for some advise on bike packing routes and more importantly, safe and clean campsites in the area around Van Gaarlens, Hartibeesport dam. If I can find a few safe places to camp in the area, I can try and link them up and create a route. I want to plan a 3 or 4 day bike packing trip around that area with my family. Alternatively is anyone knows of an existing route with places to camp/stay in Gauteng, Northwest or Limpopo, please let me know. Any help or advise will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Pete.
