Breakfast Run - February 2009
[words and pics by Jason]
MIRRAG !!!
So ...
To all of you who decided that swimming lessons, being babbalas, paying the bills, painting the house, washing your clothes, etc, etc ... took priority over a Saturday morning breakfast run ... shame ... you missed out, you silly boy ...
I left home at about 08:00am to meet up with whomever at the Engen 1 stop garage on the N2 highway. I pull away from home & my bike feels a whole lot different due to the fact that I am now a not so proud owner of a venter trailor ... OK, it’s a legal numberplate, yes, you read correct. Jason not only has a numberplate on his bike, but it’s a legal one!!! F&*KING COPS !!!
So I pull up at the 1stop being all legal & all, thinking that today is the day that the cops can go F.....ornicate themselves. As I pull into the parking lot, I am greeted by about 6 of these aforementioned okes & I ask myself, "What do I have to do to avoid these nice okes?" But today is different as I am legal ... so bring it on I tell myself. To my surprise all they did was greet me, like well trained little poodles. I could get used to this ...
After about 5 minutes, Garrett, Nazeem, Bubba, Staci & Timmy pull up. We have a entjie & a sip of juice(thanks G) & we saal op.
We gooi down the N2 towards Somerset West, turned off at the R44 turn off & made our humble way to Stellenbosch to take on the nice stretch of mountain called HELLS HOOGTE (that might be spelt wrong). Right this is where the fun starts, we go up the mountain only to stop halfway because it was so lekker, we had to turn around & go do it again. By now it was about 38 degrees out there & we still had a longish way to go. So we set off to Franshoek for a cold beer. We pull into Franshoek, get a lekker parking but unfortunately there was not enough parking for all of our bikes, so Bubba parked in the
"TOUR BUSSES ONLY" parking. Si si si si ...
We sitting in this resturaunt & instead of just the beer we wanted, we sommer ordered a breakfast, but while waiting for the breakfast, there we a number of people that walked into this place, grabbed a seat, sat for about 5 minutes, looked at us for the whole of those 5 minutes that they were sitting there & then politely got up & f*&%cked off. This was confusing cause I could'nt figure out why. I know we a ugly bunch, but damm ... are we that ugly??
I eventually figured it out ... it was all because our good friend Nazeem, was bragging about his cousins that could fly planes & then on top of that, he still bragged on how good they were when they flew those planes into buildings. So now you can mos imagine why the people just F&^$%cked off without even asking for water.
Anyway, we finish up there & we are now gooing to Villiersdorp via the Franshoek pass. This was a befokkte ride, really, this was a qwaai ride. From villiersdrop, we went to Grabouw, then we went towards Hermanus direction & turned off towards Kleinmond heading towards Drummond Arms.
Once we got there, 1 beer was not acceptable, Not by any degree, as it was k@k hot. I ... MUST ... HAVE ... ANOTHER!!
We leave there & we now gonna gooi home, so we have a lekker fast ride around the mountain towards Gordans Bay only to pull over & make a U-TURN & go back to Drummonds Arms just because the ride was to fokken lekker not to do it again!
By the time I got home I had done 334.6km for the day. NICE!!!
Jason
SQUARROWS ... FOR LIFE !!!!
