I cannot begin to express how eagerly I have been waiting for this episode. Came across this channel during festive and I have been binge watching all episodes from the early days of this channel to present. I have without a doubt binged repeated all episodes and grown to know the regulars and favorites from Adrian(The responsible big brother) Rickus(the laid back over skilled OG) Pierre (The lose Canon) Fanie (The always eager one) John( underrated skilled rider) Nick and Tiaan(the boys with the best meat in town) and lastly my all time favorite Dewald (Funny & always picked on younger sibling with pure passion for riding). Bob a character that touched me in someway and left me broken when I got to know of his passing, a 'mentor to Dewald'. This channel has taught me so much and I am in awe and truly appreciative of all the lessons. it has taught me that there is more to life then what society shows us, it has taught me that no matter how many times you fall of your bike (literally & metaphorically) , you pick yourself up and learn from your fall/mistake. Thanks to Frans for capturing such moments and a special thank you to Pierre for this channel and showing us how beautiful SA is and life on gravel is.

Route Planning using Basecamp and Garmin XT. I place waypoints at every intersection and if selecting a gravel section, maybe one in the middle of the section. My avoidance and speed settings are the same on Basecamp and on my XT; both use the same map. Then when I transfer to the XT there is no difference when the XT calculates the route. I also set the proximity to 50m so that if my point is not exactly on the road or I am a few metres away it will accept the point as being passed and not try to route me back because I missed the mark. Routes tell me how far I will be riding that day so comparing that to the range shown by the bike, I can accurately decide where to refuel - no unnecessary stops or fear of running out. I use tracks where there is no road marked on Garming Streetmaps but that is not often. If you are forced to deviate you are not assisted to return to the track. If you change your mind and add or remove a section of the ride you can't change the route on the road.

Do you ride jeep tracks often? We use Trax4Africa. Its a great map overlay in Basecamp and Garmin. Try it for all those wayward offroad adventures.

@@PierreBreytenbyes I do use T4A and it is often useful for smaller trails. It’s important to have the same map in Basecamp as you have in the XT or else it may route differently when you are actually riding it. Mostly the CN maps have all the trails now as the quality of the aerial photography improves. Imagine the quality coverage we will get when the whole country is covered by drone footage from a few hundred metres up and really accurate location data.

Leka story & another great episode. I've ridden the Cederberg area twice already with my 990 and each time the preceding rain messed up the roads to Wupperthal & Eselbank, causing us to change our plans. I'm moving from Gauteng to the WC early next year and then this elusive area will be more within reach when conditions are favorable.

Having done medical support for adventure bike tours for over a decade now in SA & Botswana for most big adventure bike brands, these unfortunate incidents can really put a damper on the day for riding buddies and event organisers. Whether on my own as sweep paramedic on a bike, or with a medical team and dedicated ambulance bringing up the rear, it's a logistic headache filled with moral dilemmas to get the injured rider to the next level of care whilst trying to keep the tour/ride on track for the other riders and to maintain the morale of the remaining riders. I enjoy these Footpeg Diaries series.

Everyone gets the engine braking wrong for the AT. Look at the manual, mine on page 146: "Level 1 has the strongest engine braking effect. Level 3 has the weakest engine braking effect." As you said, the higher the blue line, the more interference from the computer. Therefore 1 is normal engine braking (no interferance) , in 3 the computer will allow a bit more throttle in order to reduce normal engine braking. But I (and many on the internet forums) have found it makes no difference at all! I also set my Traction Control to the Favourites button (*), so by pressing it I can reduce the traction from 7 to 1 and cycle back to 7 again depending on the road surface conditions on the fly

First of all I wish the injured a speedy recover Secondly: This is adv riding and calculated risk we all are willing to take Third though: I have been on several organized adventure rides and I was always invited as the medic and sweep. If you want to have organized tours and big groups like these you should seriously consider hauling a medic along in the support vehicle. A little price to pay for a bit of peace of mind. Anyhow, just my take. Have a good one!!

Budget is a factor when planning these events. Unfortunately for the participants and organisers, it adds to their stress with no medic. As enduro & adventure riding paramedic at events for over 14 years all over SA & Botswana, I have noticed some events have started skipping medics altogether, going for cheaper options (BLS instead of ALS) etc.
@nadiascholtz169

Absolutely. Safety first. Keep in mind this event is in the Cederberg, hence the medic is booked for when they ride there.

What a disappointment that Honda, Leatt and Insta 360 supports this type of irresponsible riding. If breaking the law, fracturing limbs, concussion and wrecking your bike is what is consider as adventure riding then we are out!!! Today I am sad to be a Honda owner😢. Really guys 140km on gravel!!! Your giving adventure riders even newbies like me a BAD name.😢

140 km on gravel? I did a 350 km ride in and around Tankwa on gravel 4 months ago just after the torrential rains. 11 Water crossings and numerous mud patches. I do not think Handa Leatt 360 etc support this, not sure what you mean all sport has its injuries, Yes I am also surpised that 1 ride had so many falls. Why giving a bad name? I do think maybe the riders were outside they experience but then again I had done 2 dirt rides before my Karoo trip. The riding from what I see was not irresponsible at all and the speeds they did was nothing like I have seen guys doing 140km/h on dirt now that is ludicrous to say the least.

As a paramedic for tours like this for over 14 years in SA & Botswana, we have to drop our idealism when it comes to activities like these that have significant intrinsic risk. It's a bonus if all riders who start make it to the end. The intention of this tour was to include supporters, not only a group of even-skilled riders. Some guys do foolish things, some have bad luck, but I would not call this tour irresponsible. Btw, 140km/h on gravel is slow. Nobody boasted about that speed. I've seen guys post speedo readings online of >200km/h on gravel. With so many variables, in most events I have attended to as medic, most events have some unlucky fella whose trip ended prematurely. It's part of the game.

Hope the guys and their bikes heal quickly, some of that gravel would have made me edgy at times but it's about holding your nerve and riding through it, I think when my spinxter starts twitching it's more about not wanting to damage the bike, I'm gunna mend the bikes gunna cost me 😂😂😂 Fannie can't believe you ran him over after being so nice and offering advice 😂😂😂 But seriously you guys are the sort of riders that we call family watch out for each other and be safe, See you for the next episode 1👍👍
