Closing down a whole highway really is fucked up. What makes bikers better than other road users? I am a biker myself, but I still detest cunts that think they own the road. This behavior are more prevalent among Harley riders.
The farm on the left used to belong to my family :)
Translated to "God help me pass", a road that was renowned for being a nightmare for bus and truck drivers while it was gravel, claimed many souls.
Weeeee eahloa thaba ka hopola haeso Qacha'snek❤❤❤❤🌹
Glad you got to remember your home town.
Did round trip in 2018 - Maseru , Thaba Theka ,Khatse dam and back to Maseru down Free State border. Magical trip.
Altyd lekker om te kyk.
great videos, but would you consider dropping the music and just leaving the raw sound of the bike?
Thanks for the feedback @Cisco8501. There is to much wind noice to really hear the bike. Will try and leave off the music where the bike sounds are louder and less wind noice.
I was using a bycecly in 1998 and to intaba lodge where I was staying
It's Thaba-Tseka district
The keyring is being put to good use 🙂
It took me 3 reads before I understood. Glad you like it. Hope it becomes a good memory of us meeting up. When in JHB area look me up. You got a place to stay if you need one. We are 5 mins from the airport.
@@dhc-mountainpasses Thanks mate, it meant more than you realise :)
Would be great if you could give more details/ directions of the route
Hi @virgilio1355, thanks for the question The start gps co-ordinates and end co-ordinates are in the description. What more info would make it better? Perhaps join me on this telegram channel and we can discuss what can make the description better in the future. t.me/SouthernAfricanPasses
What is the closest town, or access point to the pass
The closest town is Patensie to the east. More detailed info here: ruclips.net/video/vztbhgnexUU/видео.html You can download the GPX file from here: data.dhc-mountainpasses.co.za/tracks/gpx/passes/[247]%20Langkop%20Pass.gpx
Love this😜
Lyk lekker, geniet hom...
It was an awesome ride and definitely memorable. Great group of guys you ride with.
Nice Anton, you are very brave to go up there with your bike
Well done again! Proud of u guys!
nice ride
Thanks. Also love your k-nine rides :)
Thanks for this, I am planning a trip next month so this helps a lot. Can you tell me which road did you use to get to Thaba Tseka? I am thinking of Sani Pass up, then via Thaba Tseka to Katie dam but I see google maps is telling me around 6 hours
oh I see it looks like you came from Maseru side
Hi Matthew. Yes we came from Maseru side. 2 Weeks ago we did Sani pass, but were advised not to go to Thaba-Tseka from Sanie side, as the road is very bad. I will try and contact you via FB and give more info.
Send me a message on telegram using this link t.me/SouthernAfricanPasses I can give more info about our recent trip from 2 weeks ago.
@@dhc-mountainpasses Thank you, that is very helpful information. I will need to plan another route then
From Sani border post follow A1 till you get to a T-Junction. Turn Left (47km). Ride till you get to a circle (28 km). Turn Left at the circle. Tar road turns into dirt road, keep left. Ride till you get to tar road (75km), then Left (23 km). Reach Katse dam. Give yourself 6 hours, and do it only when *good weather* (We got stuck in slippery clay for 4 hours on one hill) I have GPS track if that would help. And lots more info if you need.
Lesotho is beautiful guys especially in the Rural place is interesting
Cool Video!!!
Schön gemacht! Sehr schön
Vielen Dank
My first video to go over 1000 Views. Woohoo!
Hi, I know this is on the N14 outside Kakamas as I've driven it a lot, but could you please put some more info in the description as it is sometimes difficult to determine where the pass is by just looking at the Google Earth fly-over. Tnx
Thanks for the comment. I will add the start and end GPS points to all future videos. When I am bored will go back and update the exising videos. I also have all the GPX files on my web site of all the passes and roads I have ridden on the motorbike (will soon add the car rides as well) www.dhc-mountainpasses.co.za/ridden
Dry landscape but beautiful drive..
Very dry in the Northern Cape. Makes it's own type of beauty.
place needs some rain
Yep, very dry there. Has a different type of beauty.
Mooi grond pad en oop vlaktes...
not brown nosing but for what i am up to this video is the best on the net hands down too
Thanks for the awesome reply.
Cool ride again!! Tks for sharing!
Cool ride!! Tks for sharing!
Could I possibly feature some of your music on my future videos? Full credit to your channel and song.
@@dhc-mountainpasses Absolutely!!
I have come down a few times never been up, has to one of the best mpumalanga has, hoping to do it again soon, thanks
I have marshaled cycle races up the pass a few times. It's really tuff to go up (on a bicycle)
Lekker Anton, mooi pad!
Fantastic🔥🔥
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL !!!! Thank you for all the videos !!! God Bless and safe travelling in 2023 !!!! xoxxoxo
Another beautiful road trip !!!! Happy Xmas and Happy New Year. God bless in 2023 !!!
😇Thanks so much. And same to you 😇
Next time you go up there you should visit the block house, just as you passed the peak of the pass there is a small road turning off to the left leading up to a lookout on the mountain and the remains of the block house. I also didn't know about it the first time I went up there, only went up to the block house after a friend told me about it...
Thanks for the tip. Will defiitly do it next time.
My first time ever through Breedtsnek was on a motorcycle, a Chinese import semi off-road with a self build-up Suzuki 250cc engine... fun times.
Thank you for all your videos ! Really enjoy them.
Jirrree what a pass :) must be a kawasaki passing you there ;) thanks
Beautiful !!!! xoxoxxoo
Thanks. I have updated my camera to a Gopro Hero 9. Soon the footage will be a lot better. The first Gopro video will be released on 17 December - Breedsnek Pass.
i did that one a few years back, really nice :)
THIS WAS FUN !!!! I am full of mud, sweat, tears and now off to go and make a cup of tea !!!!! :)
You need to that again on a sunny day, would love to see over the edge, nice
Agreed. Good reason to go back. Next time I will stay one-night camping in the reserve as well.
Just to happy to sit as passenger and watch the road, views and scenery !!!!! :) DANKIE !!
