About last night
We were treated to a Police escort and a traditional Zulu reception when we arrived yesterday afternoon. Everyone became very emotional as we all congratulated each other on completing the journey.
One of the stranger traditions of the tour is that a bike is ridden into the Hotel's pool - the picture shows the motorbike in the pool! Yes the headlights are still on ... and after a bit of gently tweaking, the bike restarted once out of the pool!

Spirits are high as this is the last riding day... and no they are not having a crafty pee!
Only cloud on the horizon is Pete losing his passport! Watch this space for further updates!

Day 9 - 200km
We started off with a visit to the hole in the wall and then stopped off at the beautiful Coffee Bay to watch schools of dolphins swim by and even a whale!
Later on in the morning, the more adventurous amongst us had a go at trying to wheelie in Kevin's Wheelie School - more falls to me I'm afraid!
