Fox Rally 2008






By Elsje Vermeulen
The 14th annual motorcycle Fox Rally was hosted at the Abrahamsrust Resort (Sasolburg, Northern Free State, SA) on March March 28 - 30 and more than 3 250 bikers rocked up to join in the fun.
With special permission from the local authorities to take over the the two lane road in front of the venue, the guys had no problem turning it into a strip of a different kind. Those who can, showed others and hundreds of spectators how to handle a motorcycle. Dangerous tricks had spectators buzzing with excitement. One of the participants travelled form as far as East Londen (almost 1 000km) to be part of the action. One can just wonder what kind of money all the participating iron horses would ad up to. If you work on an amount of an average of R50 000 (and believe me I think it can be way more) it amounts to approximately R160 000 000. Not too bad!
