SA's #1 town

Team Deep South are on location in one of the coolest little dorpies around(if you believe Engen) for the loooooong week-end. To escape the 'razzi we're shacked up in a little corner of Thesen's Island, accessible only by boat (or car if you can work out how to get past security).



Due to a massive oversight the trip was double booked with The Pink Loerie Mardi Gras, and the town will just have to be shared with muscle tops, feather boas and peroxide pink. The excursion to Zanzibar was attempted, only becuase the National Drag Finals and ensuing 'Muscle Party' was to be held elsewhere. Needless to say, Steve and Dirk did not win the R1000 in the Walk off, and some thespian with a Hawaain shirt and limp wrist stole the show. Why they replace the foosball table with a ramp is still beyond us.

The discrening will have realised that this is a covert training trip for the July Oyster Invasion where the focus remains on finishing the most events with the most litrage of Mitchells possible.



Further to this a recce was conducted up Homtini Forest with not 1,2,3 but 8 mountain bikes. Woose dave decided that suspension, maps or common sense were for the weak and did a solo effort, 5 minutes ahead of the pack. the rest of us made it round the forest, fynbos and jeep tracks in style. In short, if you're coming here, bring a bike.
