Camping:
If you want to camp - please book directly with Moegatle.
They do have some permanent tents with beds - you just take your own bedding.

Paid. Well I should probably remove the stock sidestep sometime? Will this be possible on these obstacles?

Cornell dug up a video by ZR6SGN (Steve Nuns) of a Moegatle Trip I arranged in 2012.

Enjoy!

At 02:28 you can enjoy my 'Ou Ryperd' Duet with Delwynne.

From 04:40, with O'Fortuna by Carl Orff as the back track, you will see the group do 'Koos Se Klim'.

Manny! Manny! Manny!

If you go steep downhill do you apply handbrake and footbrake?
Please advice.

Regards.

On that obstacle I pull the handbrake up a notch or two.
Use Low 1.
Feather the brake.

I dont have HDC.
Low 1 is waaaaay too fast.

But the big fear is breaking too hard and stalling (Fearless is manual).
Because if you stall - you are in deep kak meneer...

Why not go down on your brakes alone? Neutral plus brakes?

What if the brakes fail or fade Chris?
What if you panic, brake too hard and start sliding?
In fact, sliding on the brakes alone is almost guaranteed...
