We are planning a club ride over the Easter weekend to Pontdrif, one of our four extreme points. Because of the Easter traffic on the route via Polokwane, I am planning to take a more westerly route via Thabazimbi and Ellisras. Current plans are to sleep the first night (21st) at Ellisras and the remaining 2 nights somewhere close to Pontdrif. I have enquired about accommodation and will post more details as soon as possible. In the meantime, please let me know who will be interested to join me for this ride so that I can get a feel for the numbers. This is your chance to get one of the four points towards an extreme silver.
Regards...Andre (0829000297)

Thanks very much for the info on Ellisras accommodation. I will post more details on all the accommodation options as soon as I know how many are interested in this trip. Probably by the middle of next week.

Folks, I just confirmed with Machauka Lodge that they still have accommodation for Friday, 21 March but cannot guarantee that it is still there tomorrow. If you are still interested to go, please book as a matter of urgency and let me know via SMS on 0829000297 by tomorrow please (13 March). For Saturday & Sunday night we can still get accommodation in Musina at Limpopo River Lodge (015 5340204) but the same rules apply. This is our last chance. Regards.. Andre
