If we meet at Lindequesdrif then we will probably convoy with the Orange team. Are you joining us Henk?

Nothing has happened yet. They're leaving for Lesotho today so it looks like we won't meet them unless they come back this way after the World Cup is over.

Re: Let's give them a proper South African welcome
Seems these guys stayed in Paarl on Wednesday and Thursday night. They apparently had the old "Campers Paradise", now "Berg River Resort" booked out just for themselves.
They were then going to the game in a fifty orange car convoy. I got back to late from PE to see them drive passed my house. (N1 is a stones throw away from home)

Re: Let's give them a proper South African welcome
Dunno if these pics have already been posted elsewhere but here is the Dutch convoy leaving the campground in Pretoria and travelling to Durban. The convoy was apparantly 6km long and consisted of 175 vehicles, including lots of ACVWs. Many of them are part of the Orange Trophy that came through Africa overland from Holland.
