Hello,
The run back from Cape Town to Jo'burg is a 14 hour stint.
(Gone are the times when you could do it in 12 hours, at a 160 km/h cruise) lol
Great N1 highway all the way.
Just stopping for toilet and fuel.
Done it many times.
Watch out, and must slow down when passing the 'dorpies'
The speeding fines is some times the only income for some of these little towns / dorpies.

In Cape Town June is winter and the rainy season. September is spring, therefore much warmer, but still the chance of a days rain exists. But not enough to ruin your 3 week trip.
http://weatherdot24dotcom/ is a site where you may see what the weather holds for the week across the whole country.

There are many speed camera's, on national roads the limit is 120kmph, but when passing through towns or roadworks drops to 60kmph. They are not shy to trap in these area's - as previously stated in thread, is a source of income.

Most area's of South Africa are very safe, just use a little street sense.
And enjoy :mchappy:

BMW hire
 

Try Motoberlin (mtoberlin.com) for a F650 to hire: Dave (the owner) is extremely helpful, has a range of 650's, 800's and 1200's. If you need a place to stay in Johannesburg, PM me. I have just finished the Americas north to south, am preparing to ride Cape to Cairo in September
