Tour of South Africa

[gone]

I was lucky enough whiles holidaying in the the UK last year (I'm currently living in SA) to organise a short bike trip into France/Belgium. Whiles on the trip I realised that I havn't really explored much of my home country and was really keen to experience a wider variety of the South African culture.

...so...I'm hoping to organise a bike tour for next year (hopefully feb/march which is summer over here). The plan is to take 14-20 days and visit every province along the way.

My initial plan (route attached):
- Starting in Cape Town heading east along the coast.
- Still bay
- Plettenberg bay
- Jeffrey's Bay
- East London
- Durban
- then up to Kruger National Park
- Jo'burg
- Clarens
- Kimberley
- back to Cape Town

However, as mentioned, I havn't done much touring around South Africa. So if you have any experience of touring in SA I'd love to hear from you:
- Which roads to avoid
- Which roads to try and include
- Which places to visit (I want to try and include a wide variety of South African culture)
- Things to do in each place
- How much time you reckon I'll need

I'm planning on taking a small tent and wild camping when possible. Also looking for other people to join me for the whole trip or part of it.

Otherwise, I guess if no-one here has any input then I'll just use this thread to post pictures / updates
