HVR ran a series of trips from Somerset West near Cape Town, over Sir Lowry's Pass to Steenbras and return. Motive power was oil-burning 19D 3334 "Daizy". On our trip, the perfect weather revealed stunning views over Strand, False Bay and Table Mountain as we climbed the pass, not to mention the pleasant forests traversed in the lower regions of the climb. Thanks to the guys from HVR for a great journey.
