Wednesday. 06 October. Day 68




Packing up this morning we greeted and thanked the friendly folk from Island Vibe backpackers in Knysa. If you ever need to sleep over in Knysa or are planning a holiday there this is a must stop. Good people and good service.

After we packed and said our good byes, we headed for the marker where we left of yesterday. The road was mostly uphill but luckily it went by quickly. We met an old friend on the road. I guy we knew from our P.E stay. He was on his way to Cape Town and agreed that Jhono get on the back of his bakkie so we can get some nice shots from the front for the blog.

On the road Puddy encountered a huge slow moving truck. Skating next to it he saw that if he could gather enough speed he could cruise right below it and through to the other side. Pushing, he managed the needed and speed and came out safely the other side. Pretty extreme.

Max drove out to Wilderness as to arrange some accommodation for us. Well done, as he hooked up three night’s free accommodation for us at the Wilderness Resort Hotel.






When the rest of team arrived after the days skating we set up out base camp and made our way to Quad adventures where they took the team on a free hour-long adventure of the surrounding forests.

Top speed 50 km/h

Average 24 km/h

Distance skated 23 km

Thanks to everyone on the trip thus far. You have made it all made it worth it..
