Any GS 1150 or 1100 to hire in Capetown

[meintjiesj]

My step father died a few hours ago so I'll be doing the trip down to Capetown. Anyone know of a reasonable place to get a BMW (anything else will be concidered as long as it is 1000cc up) for 5 to 7 days.

Been 7 years since I was over, maybe do the memory lane up to Baufort-West.

Hi Johann

I used
http://www.sa-motorcycle-tours.com/tours.html

and hired a 1200GS for 8 days to do an unescorted tour up the garden route and down the Karoo.

It was gourmet hotels (fabulously cheap by UK standards) and lovely scenery (though cold in the Karoo).

He is a bit pricey to hire and somewhat "old school" * but honest and the bike was good. He can also hire out 1100GS.

pm if you want further details and to be bored by 1000 photos!!!

Cheers

Simon

"If you find yourself in a township - where black people live - imeadiately turn round"
"Be careful of black people at night as you may not see them" - presumably unless they smile ;-)
"Black people often sleep on the road at night"
