PLEASE NOTE! THE MAP FROM TWEE RIVIERIN TO NOSSOB AND MABUA SHOWN IN THE EPISODE IS THE INCORRECT ROUTE. PLEASE FOLLOW THE MAIN ROUTE IN THE NOSSOB RIVER. Google maps wouldn’t let me route on the main road thus the map is incorrect.
Any offensive comments that do not contain any constructive criticism will result in the removal of the comment and the user will be blocked from viewing the channel, come on guys LETS KEEP IT LEKKER!
For all the keyboard warriors that are going to say the reason we got stuck on the dunes is because we are towing trailers please refrain from even commenting. Whether we had trailers or not it all came down to tyre pressures which is explained in the video.
