White River resident Gary Edwards again participated in this year’s annual Magnum car and bike rally from August 14 to 17.
Organised by the Pretoria Old Motor Club and hosted at Hotel Numbi and Garden Suites in Hazyview, participants experienced the Lowveld scenery and enjoyed some of the most beautiful mountain passes in the country.
The rally is, however, more than just a rally. It is about sharing in the atmosphere of friendships, fun, good food and accommodation.
Vehicles manufactured before December 31, 1997 were eligible.
Edwards participated on his 1980 Suzuki GS1000 S, one of about 50 bikes owned by him.
On the first day of the rally, participants covered about 300 kilometres and visited Herman Nel’s private collection of classic, vintage and old cars at Old Car Haven Museum on the Brondal Road.
On the second day another 300 kilometres were done and on the final day, Saturday, they did about 200 kilometres.
The excitement concluded with a prize-giving at Hotel Numbi and Garden Suites on Saturday night.
