Lesotho weekend
Johannesburg, South Africa
Spent the weekend riding around Lesotho, a small mountain kingdom approx 400 km from Johannesburg. The mountain roads are breathtaking. The scenery stunning...not a place to ride for the faint hearted as there are so many switchbacks and treacherous bends, not to mention cattle and loose rocks that a single lapse of concentration could be fatal! Riding in a pack of 19 bikes, we headed out of Maseru past Mohale dam. There were at least 300 tight bends and switchbacks within a 60 km distance ...bikers heaven! This is definitely a place to get to see and ride in...one for the bikers bucket list!
More twisties and switchbacks than you could ever imagine...elevation of 2,200 metres...beautiful scenery!
Magical corners...no margin for error!
Awesome views!
