Hi from South Africa

Hi There. I found this website by accident, but so pleased I did. Also it's nice to see the ladies forum.

I'm a new road rider, but ridden off-road for a couple of years. In South Africa riding on the road can be fairly dangerous, as normal traffic laws are more often than not ignored, so you have to be extemely aware when riding. I'm finding that within 3 weeks of riding!

But the weather here is fantastic, even though it's winter at the moment, sunny days are still enjoyable. All I can say is - roll on summer!!

Thanks for providing a great service, and look forward to finding/offering information where needed.

Regards, T

:hithere: welcome to TMW, Tamlyn.

When you say winter in SA, does it actually get cold? I would have never guessed.

Enjoy the forums. :)

Hello Tamlyn,

I also just found this site....looks to be a nice place to hang out.

I lived in Johannesburg 2001-2004 and then in Mbabane, Swaziland 2004-2007. S.A. has got to be the perfect place for bike riders. I loved every minute of riding there and hope to visit again in the future!

Cheers,

Mac
