Jean and Suzette getting ready for the Mass Ride
This years Rocktober Festival hosted by "Set-Free Ministries" in Great Brak was
attended by Heinz, Jean, Suzette, Gerhardt, Linda, Suzette's Dad and the Koch Kids.
There were not to many people or bikes in attendance since the event coincided with
the Rugby World Cup. There were about 100 motorcycles and plenty more spectators
just soaking up the sun and the festivities. There were plenty of activities and the morning started off with a group ride to Great Brak River where we attended the Mass Ride through town.
Lunch. There was Curry and rice, Boerewors rolls, Pancakes and other snacks to be had and we had a great time visiting together and enjoyed seeing the Stars that were there. After Lunch it was time for the
Strong-man Competition, Tug-off War,
Egg Toss Competition, Miss and Mister
Rocktober and the Concourse competition.
Jasmin and myself entered the Egg Toss
Competition and we did not fare to bad.
We must of had a boiled egg since it fell
a couple of times without breaking but
eventually the egg did break and we fell out about midway through the competition.
Aidan came second in the Mr. Rocktober
competition and was crowned the 1st Prince, we are very proud of our little Star.
Spike my trusty Iron Horse came 3rd in the Concourse Competition. This was my first time entering a competition like this and I did not knowwhat the judges were going to look at. Now I understand why the guys were cleaning so furiously
beforehand, luckily I got the hint and tried to make the bike shine as much as possible. In the end I got points deducted since my numberplate light did not work and the lens fir the light is broken as well as dust underneath my mudguards. All in all it was a fun outing and we all enjoyed the fellowship off our brother and sister bikers out there and look forward to the next Rocktober Festival.
