Interest so far has been shown by:
Hera and I in Roodepoort Christo from Potchefstroom Ruan from Harties Ross from Pretoria Riaan from Amanzintoti Dee from Kempton Park Spencer in Krugersdorp Darius from Pretoria Jaco from Pretoria Willem from Pretoria Elsa and Koos from Johannesburg Keith in Johannesburg Rudi from Potchefstroom Peter from Ekurhuleni
By my count, that is at least 11 Niva's (Ruan and Darius dont have working Niva's atm Dee does not currently have a Niva)
Ross has kindly offered us the use of his farm which has a bit of everything, hills, dongas, water and mud. Please keep me posted if you are interested in joining us, it will be late July or early August. Ross also says there is plenty of space for a tent if you want to stay over and make a weekend of it.

Engela in Krugersdorp (I think) has also shown an interest, if her Niva is fixed after it got flooded at Hennops a while back, she ended up recovering a Sani that got flooded and has ordered parts from Pavel that she is waiting for.
