Help with fuel needed

Postby Sukkelaar » Mon Nov 01, 2010 8:10 pm

Hi there all

I am planning on going to visit family in Kakemas with my trike departing Springs Thursday morning 04 November.

I need help with Fuel at Schweizer Reneke and again in Groblershoop, and I can not give a time of arrival either so will have to call someone once there.

Any help or other suggestions will be highly appreciated. My route is as follows Springs - Klerksdorp - Schweizer - Kuruman - Groblershoop - Kakemas

Kind regards

Thanks for the help, still need help at Groblershoop or there abouts will deviate from Schweizer to Vryburg for juice.
George do you perhaps know Groblershoop and is there a Petrol Garage nearby, Im going through in a day so don't need hangarage. I can mis Groblershoop if someone can help me in Kuruman.
Will be leaving Wednesday morning 03/11/2010 from Fasi and end in Kakemas same day.

Thanks

Hi Sukkelaar

Ek gaan waarskynlik die 4de deur Groblershopeloos ry, hang af hoe laat jy daar gaan wees, ek ken mense daar met wie ek dalk iets kan reel ook. Daar is 2 vulstasies waarvan 1(Caltex) op die buitewyke van die dorp is reg langs die Griekwastad pad by die kruising met die Upington pad.

Jy kan my kontak by 082-990-2415, indien ek buite coverage is los n boodskap en nommer en ek skakel terug.
Safe Flying!

Sorry Bud, Groblershoop is beyond my domain of the sticks... Good luck...

PS
Just check price with Francois first. He has been stuffed around plenty so does charge to come out because he has spent plenty sundays waiting for the phantom PIELOOT ## ## ## ## ## ##

Hi guys I know this is short notice but fuel at Newcastle can also help my plans.

I need someone to take me to a Petrol Station to collect petrol. I have 2 X 25L cans that I carry
and need another 50L, not to do the trip twice. (Trike will need 50L and Cans 50L to leave with).

I will Have to refill in at one of the following airfields, Volksrust, Vryheid, Newcastle, Wakkerstroom.

Thanks

Kind regards

Hi Sukkelaar,
Ek en Asterix het daardie roete al twee maal gevlieg en ons het elke keer op Volksrus en Vryheid geland..
Ons het baie hulp van die plaaslike ouens gekry..By Volksrus het n ou sommer spontaan na die runway gekom toe hy die trikes oor die dorp sien..
By Volksrus kan jy Dirk skakel, sy nommer is 082 nine two four 3 one 0 four.
Ek sal jou die nommer by Vryheid ook laat kry, sodra ek met Asterix kontak maak..
Hoop jy kom reg..
Ons het Newcastle mis gevlieg..
n Veilige roete vir trikes.
Lekker vlieg.. vhpy
Ek praat jou thaal...
