Definitief nie "Suzie" nie Sy gaan julle 'n ding of twee wys van wat sy kan doen.HannesCreamsoda wrote:Recoveries se jy? HmmmmmmmmJohanM wrote:Hier is die dag se beplande verloop van sake.
Ek het sopas verneem van Jaco dat ons saterdag wel Nissans en Land Rovers ook kan verwag daarso, so ek is seker ons kan dalk verwag om heeldag lank recoveries te moet doen, sodat ons kan ry.....
Die Beplande wegspring tyd is so vir 09h30 by die kantoor, dan sal ons middag ete 'n piekniek maak by die 2de Piekniek plek, behoort teen so +/- 12h30 se kant te kan middag ete hou. Ek sal almal net aan raai om vir hulself gemaklike opvou stoele saam te bring sodat ons kan lekker uitspan oor middag ete. Na die afloop van die roete is almal welkom om 'n braai te kom maak daar saam met die wat oornag kamp.

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Riaan, ek het die weer gekyk, en soos ek hoor daar uit die dorp is daar `n goeie kans dat ons `n lekker reen bui kan verwag. Dit sal natuurlik net alles soveel lekkerder maak. Hopelik het hulle nie soos laas die rivier deel toegemaak nie..... Ek wil juis bietjie in die turf loop ry...

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Thanks to great organisation and years of hard work and meticulous planning by Suidwes aka Jaco, I'm glad to report that we've had a GREAT day's playing. One thing I've learned is that this crowd is punctual! We were going to meet up at Parys from WHERE we were to leave at about 8:30. Well thanks to all the moms and kidz who got up so early, we left at 8:35 for the track where some steaming hot coffee was waiting - or so we were promised...
Afer the formalities were completed the convoy of 6 vehicles, including a new For-tuna idled to the campsite for coffee with saliva running at the mere thought of freshly brewed filter coffee awaiting. Alas that was not to be, as due to power shedding (someone shed the cable) the water was cold.
Back at the reception, 3 members of the Outlaws arrived and boy did they make an entrance. Poor RAMKAT.NW had one look at the monsters being towed on trailers and quickly hid around the corner. It was a real scene from the movie CARS as Andre gave us the low down on the route with the other cars shaking in their boots as the monsters started their big V8's with screaming turbo's and things. Fortuna-tely we didn't see them again.
The route was lovely with everything around us being so green and lush and it all went down without incident until we got to a spruit that looked like it aspired to become the main tributary of the Vaal river. Aldo braved the wet, walked through and confirmed that the water crossing is safe. By this time Ouma and Oupa got over the initial shock (they were under the impression that we were going art viewing in Parys heha :evil: ) and also started enjoying themselves.
Only one recoevery was needed in our group when it was proven that racing slicks are not the best option to play in black cotton mud. The Isuzu tried but was found too light and it was up to a Hilux to do the job.
Lunch break was under a huge tree with a proper concrete braai facility. Everyone, but moi, took one look at the weather and yanked out a cold meal, from quiche to last night's leftover steaks appeared. I insisted in making a fire to braai wors as planned, but that idea soon rained out.
After lunch the group split up with only 4 vehicles going on towards the mountain in pouring rain, which we were warned against. At the first obstacle Aldo had to recover a car from another group which was about to start flying down the mountain. As a reward, the owner reversed Aldo's truck over a rock, breaking off a mud flap. Goes to show that no good deed goes unpunished.
While that was playing off, in another drama the last of the 4 cars somehow got out of drive and ran downhill, causing the rest to bunch up to get out of harms way, while it was still pouring with rain. The little group decided that the prudent option was to turn around and take the chicken run back to camp.
All in all a very very big memorable enjoyable day was had by all with no major damages. And best of all it left us with a little taste to come back for the mountain.
Lots of photos were taken and anyone who want some of mine can mail me at andre.rentals@gmail.com, please also send me your photos?
THANKS TO ALL FROM RAMPIE, KATRYN, OUMA & OUPA!

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
We were actually 4 cars (8 members).....
But agree.....lovely day.....mud and rain was a big plus....
We did the whole trail....only finished at 15:30. Braaied in the rain....meat does not melt...
PS: It is not monsters.....it is a Super truck....
And no need to be scared of them....it is a car just like all the rest.....
Pity that Rhino challenge wsa closed....would have loved to try.
Also condition was not ideal for production vehicles-our production driver has a few tense moments.

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Yes it was great. Thanks to everyone who joined, excellent turnout - think 12 vehicles
Rampie covered day 1 but myself, Aldo, Paul and David decided to tackle the mountain this morning and boy did we have fun. The track up the mountain was much more challenging than the steep descends. We had to rebuild some roads and guide vehicles – Big thanks to Aldo and the guys for all the help. I’ll post some pics tomorrow.
For the all the campers, thanks for a lekker kuier and good laughs – Looking forward to Rust de Winter

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Net 'n vinnige regstelling Eerstens: Ja dit is 'n Toyota wat die recovery gedoen het, maar met 'n winch en "counter slip/reverse driving "The Isuzu tried but was found too light and it was up to a Hilux to do the job.
en
Tweedens: BAIE NAT Turf, Gras, "Tow rope" nie "Kinetic strap" en 'n "incline" kon die Suzie dit nie suksesvol uitvoer nie.
Nogtans stem ek saam dat dit 'n 8 ) lekker outing was. Van my kant af ook aan almal wat daar was 'n THANKS! Julle het my laat tuis voel al was ek die enigste Isuzu.
Julle gaan my definitief weer sien. Hoe gouer hoe beter.
Ek sal in my volgende post 'n paar fodies plaas.

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Dit was Great , die volgende trip is rreds bepelan vir Rust de Winter,so waarna kyk ons na Rust de Winter, sodat ons solank kan beplan, enige ideas.
Andre, ek moet sê. ek was vandag baie bly ons het besluit om terug te draai gister. Die verspoelde pad waar ek die ander manne recover het, was soos JAco sê, net die begin van 500m van baie werk, en 60 min se arbeid. Dankie aan Jaco en Paul wat vandag met hulle bietjie hoër bakkies die pad eesrte aangedurf het vir ons ander 2 wat so evens laer was, kon mooi lyne sien.
Dankie aan almal vir 'n lekker naweek, en welkom in Guateng Jaco

Dankie aan almal vir a baie lekker tyd.
Vanmore was tops gewees met die stuk van omtrent 500 meter wat ons oor 'n uur gevat het vir 4 karre.
My seun het lekker video geneem van die "episode" die twee Hiluxes (oud en nuut) en die ewe oue en nuwe Nissans het ons almal verbaas en ons het baie geleer.
Dankie Rampie vir die pics van dag een... Jy mag maar pos soveel jy wil, ons gaan nie kla nie

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Jaco, baie dankie vir al die relings!!! Hierdie was 'n uitstappie wat die standaard gestel het...
Aldo, Rampie en al die ander ek was baie bly om julle te kon ontmoet en moet se dat self Pa en Ma dit ongelooflik baie geniet het met die STD Fortuner.
Ek self was heel impressed met die voertuig, al het ons die linkerkanste sidestep hervorm tot 'n baie onooglike boog op die voertuig. :roll:
Ek sal more die foto's plaas wat die Fortuner se navigator geneem het.
Weereens was dit 'n lekker outing en ek glo dit is die begin van nog vele roetes wat ons saam sal kuier en ry. :D

Johan, die Onco side steps met die trappie soos myne laat lyk die Furtuner baie nice, dit sal veral help as hulle nog baie gaan ry, en as die gogga eers gebyt het, sal hy vinnig alles begin opsit

Ek gaan julle eerder maar verwys na die plekke as wat ek hulle hier probeer pos, dit vat nou net te lank en te veel van my internet...
Videos is op Youtube, hier is die link na die eerste een ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVLMepJFrVQ Die tweede een behoort binne die volgende paar minute te wys. Hier is al die pics op Picassa http://picasaweb.google.com/abcab00/200 ... qyK-J_ycg#
Weereens dankie aan almal wat dit so lekker gemaak het

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Hier is nog so paar fotos van Saterdag se roete.
Die foto's is geneem deur die Fortuner se Navigator ( aka Ma), en dit is waar sy geloop het en nie gery het nie.....
Voor die roete begin, bande afblaas...
Rocky mountain
Steep down
The recovery
Oppad huis toe via die alternatiewe roete het ons die Jong kameelperd gesien....
en dit is hoe my Hilux gelyk het na 60 km se lekker nat modder pad.......

Particularly enjoyed watching the Nissans battling to get around the tree on the Sunday mountain climb
Glad to see Jaco is straight into the action up there, another "Great WC Export"

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Thanks for the pics Jacques.. My wife is disgusted that I could get my car that dirty even before the trail began ...
That tree was interesting, but I packed a few stones in the rut on my way down to fetch my van, and drove through there very easy compared to the others. My son had the camera when I went through and the angle is different. It does not even look like the same obstacle the way I went through there as I just drove it.
I was lucky being last (well kinda) normally the last guy gets the snot end of the mud that makes it the worst, but on Sunday I was able to watch the others, check the lines and pack enough rocks in the right places to make my run easy. Watching the video, it looks like I just drove through all of them where all the others struggled. I think Jaco up front had the worst time "trail blazing" and falling into all the holes. The first obstacle claimed a Pajero the previous day that nearly fell over and Aldo had to recover him.
Another interesting thing about Sunday was that we drove the trail backwards to the picnic spot to get there as fast as possible. I have driven Berakah 3 times now, and backwards is like a whole new challenge. I think we need to speak to them and see if we can do the top section backward sometime, just that mineshaft will be a problem to get up. Double lockers should get you up, but for us normal guys with no lockers, it will probably be impossible.

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Hi There
Pleasure.
Doing the route in reverse? Sounds interesting! When are we going?
There was a few obsticles I thought would be interesting going up instead of down
The first for me now is Rhino next weekend then Rust de Winter.

Re: Barakah - 27 Feb 2009
Na van die 'obsticles' by Berakah sien ek kans vir enigiets Ek is net spyt ek moes terug kom Sondag en nie saam met julle die res van die roete kon doen nie.Ou Bloues wrote:Jacques, so ek hoop die volgende foto is een van op die brug by Rhino
Oh well, soos ek vir befreesani se = Daar's altyd 'n volgende keer.
So ja defintief sal julle 'n fodie sien van my op die brug. Ek wonder of ons hierdie Sondag op die 'gymkana' baan kan speel. Die eerste obsticle is 'n baie interresante een. Die 'trial' is lekker maar hy raak bietjie 'boring' na die 5de of 6de keer en die laaste keer het ons nie eers in die sand gespeel nie. Nie soos Berakah nie.

Baie nice, toe nie so erg soos jy gedink het nie, net daardie laaste paar sentimeter voor jy op die brug gaan wat aan jou vreet.

Dis presies hoe ek gevoel het voor ek Berakah toe was. Na daai sessie het ek kans gesien vir enige iets, maar die benoude boude was nog steeds erg teenwwordig
