Hi JFOlivier! No, I haven't taken the bike very far away at all. I'm wanting to, but there tons of places to explore within an hour of home, too! Lesotho is a paradise for dirt bikes and dual sport! We went over Sani pass with our Hilux quite a few years ago and really enjoyed it. We are also talking about going to Sehlabathebe, but I need to do some mechanical work on the Hilux to make sure it's up to a trip into remote places like that. It has right at a half million kilometres on it.
Most of my experience has been here on the western side of Lesotho. We live about 15 km outside of Maseru to the south. It used to be at least 45 minutes to town, but now it's not even 20 minutes if there's no traffic. We live at around 1600 meters which looks like about 5250 feet above sea level. The area where I was riding was a little higher--maybe 5700.
Sounds like you've had some great experiences in the Drakensberg/Maloti mountains! What brought you to South Africa/Lesotho?
