blogspot debut - Scooter trip 2006

In December 2006 I took my Yamaha BWS scooter on a 5 day drive from Cape Town to Knysna. I would not make use of the N2 highway and opted to travel along secondary roads.

I completed the 500km journey by riding almost 100km per day. I did not want to put too much stress on the 2 stroke 100cc machine and only covered short distances each day. The scooter with an OD meter of 50000km survived the trip and the only troubles I occurred during the trip was when the exhaust pipe broke off near Mosselbay.
