Run 1475: Oct 3rd @ 10am: Victim's Final Hash

Sunday's run will start from Plot 4746 near State House at 10.00 am.
It will be followed by a bring and braai - bring food as well as eating utensils.

Coming from Nelson Mandela, turn into Khama Crescent. Pass President's Drive, then the road to State House and then take the next left into Makgadikgadi.  Enter the circle and take the first turn left and then about 100m on turn right. The house is the first gate on your right.

Early birds can park inside the compund but there is no parking allowed in the street outside so latecomers can park in Mookla - the second exit from  the traffic cicle.  The hare says - do not allow the guard at the gate to turn you away if there is space inside - apparently, about 10-15 vehicles can park inside).

See the map below from Google  - which thinks we drive on the right in Botswana, so don't go the wrong way round the traffic circle!This is also an old map as North Ring road does not go through to Khama (but it at least gives you an idea where the start is)

Run 1471: Sun 5th September @ 10am: Gabane

The run on September 5th at 10am is in Gabane so will be a good bush run with great scenery.

• The road becomes single track once through Mogoditsane and reaches Gabane in 3-4km.
• Ignore the main turning signposted Gabane off to the left and carry on for another 2.5km.
• Where the hill ridge meets the main road turn left onto a dirt road. There is a cluster of signs here, the most prominent being the Gabane Balance Reservoir. There will be a KH3 sign here.
• Take the third turning on the right, 2-300m along the dirt road signposted Ditlhareng, The Taylors and KH3.
• The start is about 50m up this turning, parking on the right in front of the gate.

The bring and braai will be about 300m up the hill through the gate where there is limited parking.
