| Hi Aslam, welcome to Silver Wing land.
Visited Cape Town in the 70's, it was great, really enjoyed the hospitality.
Enjoy the forum, best way is to dive in and start posting.
Look forward to hearing about 'Winging' it is SA. |

| Hey Silver Winger, great to have another SA person on board. We are about 1600 kms away from one another but have the same taste in great modes of touring.
Enjoy and maybe one day we may end up on the same piece of tarmac!! |

| Silver Winger, I was in your beautiful town over new year 1970/71. Two glorious weeks, did the usual Table Top thing and a nice family took me round to view the many sights. Dr Barnard the pioneering heart surgeon lived there and was shown his place, (outside not in!!) The climate was superb, the town magnificent, the people so friendly. (Cape Brandy was rumored to cause blindness so we avoided that,  ) Yes, most definitely one of my most favourite places. Most memorable was a nightclub by the name of the Navigators Den. (I'll say no more on that ) |

| Waspie said: Two glorious weeks, did the usual Table Top thingWaspie... you shy little devil you. Two weeks on a table top sure beats anything I was ever able to do. Come to think of it... a whole day would probably be an exaggeration.  I did spend 12 days on the seat of a Silverwing once. But I did get off for a break each night.  |

| Silver Winger & Broncoza glad to meet two SA brothers here. Never cease to amaze me how easy it is now to visit with folks on the other side of this planet. Welcome fellows (I assume)... look forward to your contributions to the family now. You are gonna love it here. |
