This past Easter weekend our scooter club did a trip from Johannesburg to Durban, 'The long way down' which saw 13 scooters (5 Lambrettas and 8 Vespas) travel almost 800km over 3 days. It was an amazing trip with only a few breakdowns.
South Africa really is a beautiful country especially by scooter.

Ill post a few pictures but if you want to see more you can find them on https://www.facebook.com/vesparadosjhb

Nice! I would love to ride along the escarpment!

How is Durban these days, I was last there about 14 years ago? Still a good place for a visit?

Thanks for sharing!
