evin Ruthven had the whole of Lydenburg, friends from overseas and a huge friend circle behind him when he started one of the toughest endurance races in the world, the Munga. He finished after only 174.9 due to navigation and GPS problems. Medics on the scene said that he was not able to go any further. “I would like to thank Rochelle, Rochelle I will never have enough words to thank you for your friendship and belief in me, Alicia, Loraine and Andrew Codd, your surprise at WP4 and Alison Botha, Sandy and Brian from Sabie Gypsies Backpackers. The Lowveld Hikers, to every person who supported me during Munga 2019 and the lodges and their staff, my heart overflows with gratitude and love. I was fighting till the last second and I am good with that. Munga touched and changed something in me. I guess time will reveal its secrets. This is not the end, it is just the beginning,� Kevin said in an emotional Facebook
entry. He thanks every person he came in contact with during this journey and those that supported him in every way. The race started at Lakenvlei and ended about 400km further through the hills and paths of the Lowveld at Mount Sheba. Only 19 runners in the world had the courage to tackle the Munga.

A FIDELITY bakkie was robbed in a violent CIT heist on the R40 between Mbombela (Nelspruit) and White River shortly after 17:00 on Friday. SAPS Capt Pieter Smit confirmed that the driver of the Fidelity vehicle was shot in the attack. A female passenger in a passing bus was also shot. Both were rushed to hospital. A witness said she saw a grey Mercedes shoot at the Fidelity bakkie’s wheels to bring it to a stop in front of Bundu Lodge. The driver and passenger were forced from the vehicle. Explosives were then used to open the back of the bakkie. The suspects fled on the University of Mpumalanga road where a shoot-out with police took place, according to Smit. He said the suspects fled, but a Merc and Ford Ranger as well as four sealed boxes of cash were recovered on the scene. ER24’s Olivia Venter confirmed that the driver was shot in the lower leg, and is in a stable condition in Mediclinic Nelspruit. Mpumalanga News.co.za

et soveel kerke wat onlangs in Suid-Afrika afgebrand en gevandaliseer is het die brand by die Notre Dame Maandagaand die hele wêreld laat regop sit. Alhoewel dit voorkom dat die brand in Parys moontlik met die huidige restoureerwerk verband hou. Soos enige mens wat meer wil weet het ek toe gou opgelees oor die Notre Dame, terwyl ek na die grubeelde op internasionale nuus gekyk het. Soveel eeue se geskiedenis is daarmee heen. Dit het bekendgestaan as die kroningskatedraal van Franse konings, terwyl sy klokke in 1944 gelui is om die bevryding van Duitse besetting te verkondig. Die Notre Dame-katedraal is gebou op die eiland in die middel van die rivier die Seine ("Ile de la Cité") in die sentrum van Parys in opdrag van die biskop Maurice de Sully in die tyd van Lodewyk VII. Die eerste steen is in 1163 geplaas deur pous Alexander III. Die katedraal is in 1345 voltooi en tans in staatsbesit, alhoewel Rooms-Katolieke kerkdienste steeds hier gehou word. Die katedraal het vanaf 1845 'n 23-jarige restourasie ondergaan deur E.E. Viollet-le-Duc, nadat die katedraal beskadig is tydens die Franse Rewolusie. Sedert 1991 is daar 'n nuwe restourasie aan die gang wat amper voltooi is. Die Notre Dame is 130 meter lank, die twee nieafgeboude torings het altwee 'n hoogte van 69 meter. Die torings kan geklim word en bied 'n uitsig oor die stad. Op 15 April 2019 het 'n brand in die katedraal uitgebreek. Die vieringtoring of sentrale houttorinkie, wat met lood oortrek was, het net soos die gesofistikeerde Middeleeuse houtdak ineengestort, en groot skade is aan die binnekant van die katedraal aangerig. Volgens brandweerkommandant JeanClaude Gallet is twee derdes van die katedraaldak vernietig. Die buitestruktuur en noordelike kloktoring het nogtans bewaar gebly sodat die katedraal heel waarskynlik in sy geheel gered en herbou sal kan word. 'n Groot brand beteken in elk geval dat muurstene, wat deur metaalhakies met mekaar verbind en in plek gehou word, aan temperature van meer as 800 °C blootgestel kan word. Baie van die katedraal se kunsskatte is tydens die restourasiewerk elders bewaar, ander kon tydens brandbestryding gered word. Die brand is intussen onder beheer en die afkoelingsfase het begin. Deskundiges sal eers daarna in staat wees om die presiese omvang van die brandskade te bepaal. In my gedagtes het ek altyd gesien hoe ek die Notre Dame besoek as ek eendag na Frankryk reis - dit sal seker die vernuwe-weergawe wees. Michelle Boshoff

BAIE mense het ’n fobie oor klein gediertetjies. Ek het in Natuurbewaring ’n kollega gehad wat nie vir ’n gekweste buffel bang was nie, maar ’n spinnekop het hom histeries laat gil soos ’n dogtertjie. Natuurlik het dit hom ’n teiken gemaak en het ons wanneer ons in werksverband gekamp het altyd ’n rubberspinnekop in sy slaapsak of skoene gesit, met humoristiese gevolge. Of mense se vrees vir slange. En daarom is hulle sommer bang

Her passing came at such a difficult time – but we continue to celebrate her charismatic character and infectious warmth that managed to change all the lives of those she came across.

net daat vreet die Rottweiler die spinnekop op wat sy so sorgvuldig gered het! Sy het ’n vriendin wat dié ding met paddas het. Gril, gil en hol weg as sy een sien. Vir ander is dit vlêrmuise. Ek dink vlêrmuise is fassinerende en onskadelike diertjies. Moet sê toe ek ’n kannetjie was het ek onder andere met kapokkies geboer en daar was ’n haantjie met wilde spore wat my gereeld laat bloei het. Vir hom was ek bang. Die ding waarvoor ek regtig skrikkerig is, is ’n Rooi Roman of Jagspinnekop. Dit is natuurlik nie ’n regte spinnekop nie. Probleem met die ding is hy is groot, altyd befoeterd en vinniger as ’n Porsche. En hy kom altyd na jou toe. As hy oor ’n bokseil onder jou kampbed hardloop klink dit so groot soos ’n rot. En Doom maak hom niks. Vra my. Nee, ’n twaalfboor vir hom is al raad!

Rhino Horn Trade, the debate continues Community-based natural resource management is a successful working concept in many third-world and developing countries. It is time for South Africa to get on board. 4. Legal trade will encourage biodiversity by creating habitat. Habitat loss and encroachment are major global issues for biodiversity. Rhinos require a certain habitat to survive. This habitat will encourage all rhino owners and communities to create this habitat, leading to healthier ecosystems for many plant and animal species. 5. Legal trade is an innovative and conservationbased solution to the rhino crisis. More arrests and heavier sentences for offenders have not helped the rhino. Consumer education and awareness campaigns are extremely necessary, but they take time and a mass paradigm shift in order to be effective. They JOHN Hume is convinced that unless the rhino gets horn trade legalization, this magnificent animal will go extinct. John Hume is a game farmer in the Malalane area, south of the Kruger National Park (KNP). He is an ardent proponent for the legalisation of the trade in rhino horn. "My passion is breeding rhinos and from 1 March 2011 to 29 February 2012, I bred 116 rhinos. Of these, 111 are white and five are black rhino. As of today, I have 762 rhino of which 30 are black. I have enough money to continue my passion for the rest of my life. My financial advisors advise me to hold on to all my rhino horn stockpiles but this would be disastrous for the rhinos. I do not need rhino horn trade legalization but the rhinos certainly do. I am convinced that unless the rhino gets horn trade legalization, this magnificent animal will go extinct." "These are seven reasons he proposes for legalising the rhino horn trade" 1. Legal trade will give the consumer the option of buying the product from a legal, ethical, controlled source.
This will play a role in hindering the black market. There will be no need for rhinos to be killed (legally or illegally) to provide the product. Rhinos will be worth more alive than dead. 2. Legal trade will increase rhino numbers. Rhinos will once again become desirable wildlife on game farms and reserves due to the financial benefits. Legal trade will allow for the means to protect rhino on these farms and reserves. New and emergent farmers will be encouraged to breed rhino. If all these people are breeding rhinos, the numbers will obviously increase. 3. Legal trade will alleviate poverty At present, communities are turning to poaching as it is a lucrative prospect. For every poacher that gets arrested, there are 100 more people willing to take their place. If communities were taught and encouraged to breed rhino for regular horn sales, poaching incidents would drop dramatically. These communities would protect their livelihood with their lives.
Join the debate for Earth Day: in an effort to address the trading in Rhino horn, Wessa Lowveld is hosting a debate with two prominent speakers this month. Colin Bell and Dr John Hanks represent views on the opposite sides of the debate over whether to trade responsibly in rhino horn or not at all. “Within Africa, the prevailing belief centres on pursuing responsible, sustainable trade in rhino products,” explains Dr Llew Taylor. These speakers are perfectly poised to give the audience a look into both sides of the argument. Bell was a safari guide in Botswana in 1977 when rhinos ranged wild and free.
He is one of the few people who has witnessed the decline of rhino in the country and made a significant contribution to the reversal of that process. He is also a qualified economist. Hanks is a zoologist with a PhD from Cambridge on elephant population dynamics. He has 45 years of experience in applied conservation management and research projects in several African countries. Their debate is scheduled for April 24, the same week as Earth Day, which is celebrated on April 22 each year. The event will take place in the auditorium at Penryn College at 18:00 for 18:30. Entrance is R75 but free for pupils. Source: The Lowvelder.co.za
have not helped the rhino. Threatened or Protected Species (ToPS) regulations have been in place since 2007. They have not helped the rhino. An international trade ban on rhino horn is currently in place. It has not helped the rhino. Legal trade in rhino horn will satisfy the needs of consumers by supplying a sustainable, ethical product that contributes to biodiversity and habitat restoration, as well as preserving the rhino. This is the true nature of conservation. 6. Legal trade will not threaten rhinos. Rhino horn can be harvested sustainably - no rhinos ever have to die to provide it and it continues to grow throughout the animal's life. 7. Legal trade will allow us to keep rhinos in Africa, where they belong. Rhinos offer an economic benefit to the country and its population. www.krugerpark.co.za
Nuus oor herlaai van ammunisie RHEINMETAL DENEL of soos ons hulle ken as Somchem, het pas ’n omsendbrief uitgestuur waarin hulle aankondig dat S o m c h e m m s e g e w i l d e herlaaidryfmiddels haas onverkrygbaar is, as gevolg van die ontploffing laat verlede jaar by hulle Somerset Wes fabriek. Dit is inderdaad slegte nuus vir plaaslike sport- en herlaaiskuts en jagters. Die ingevoerde dryfmiddels is wel by meeste wapenhandelaars verkrygbaar, maar dit kan tot drie keer meer kos as die plaaslike dryfmiddels. Herlaaiers sal ook baie mooi moet kyk na aspekte soos brandspoed en seker maak dat hulle die korrekte ingevoerde dryfmiddels (poeier) koop. Nuwe ladingontwikkeling sal ook met dié dryfmiddels gedoen moet word. Die publiek word aangeraai om deurgaans met hulle handelaars te kommunikeer ten einde vas te stel wat, waar nog beskikbaar is. Die alternatief is natuurlik om duur fabrieksammunisie te koop en maar weer die skietgoed in te stel. Herlaaiers weet dat ladingontwikkeling lei tot baie beter ammunisie en sal geduldig moet wees. Fabrieksammunisie vir bv. 9mm Parabellum kos tussen sowat R 5-00 tot R12-00 per rondte en kan herlaai word vir so min as R 250 per rondte, mits jy reeds oor gebruikte doppies beskik. Die dryfmiddelkomponent van herlaaide ammunisie is slegs sowat 50
sent (plaaslike poeiers op 9mm). Op .308 kos nuwe amunisie tussen R 30-00 en R50-00 per rondte. Hulle kan herlaai word vir tussen R 15-00 en R20-00 per rondte. Praat met jou plaaslike wapenhandelaar by Hunters Boma oor ammunisie en herlaaitoerusting of praat met my (skrywer) oor herlaaikursusse. Somchem is van mening dat plaaslike dryfmiddels eers weer in 2020 beskikbaar sal wees.

Navara to be built locally NISSAN South Africa has confirmed it will begin building the Navara bakkie (for local and export markets) at its Rosslyn plant in Pretoria in 2020, making the announcement at a ceremony attended by President Cyril Ramaphosa. The local arm of the Japanese firm already produces the NP300 Hardbody and the half-tonne NP200 in SA, but a fresh R3-billion investment will see the Navara added to the production line (and result in 1 200 new employment opportunities at the facility as well as across the local supply chain). Mike Whitfield, managing director of the Nissan Group of Africa, said production of the Navara could see some 30 000 units added to the plant’s current annual volume of 35 000 units. This, in turn, could create the need for a new, second shift at the plant, he said. "The new Navara is the perfect model for South Africa and our workforce is ready to build it, supported crucially by the government's Automotive Production and Development Programme (APDP). Vehicles already account for around 14 percent of total exports from South Africa," said Whitfield. "Navara production will allow us to expand Rosslyn's role as an export hub for light commercial vehicles and contribute further to the local automotive sector, fully in line with the goals in the next phase of the APDP," he added. Nissan says the investment in Navara production will result in "further modernisation of the Rosslyn plant", including a new, flexible production line and additional facilities, as well as training and upskilling of staff. P r e s i d e n t Ramaphosa added the decision to produce the Navara in SA was further proof of the i n c r e a s i n g contribution of the automotive industry to the country. "Automotive is already the largest part of South A f r i c a ' s manufacturing sector, contributing around 7,0 percent GDP annually and accounting for a t h i r d o f manufacturing output. I am delighted Nissan will produce Navara here and congratulate the

employees for their efforts in securing this important model," President Ramaphosa said. The start of local production will see South Africa becoming the sixth country to build the current-generation Navara, after Argentina, Spain, China, Mexico and Thailand. Launched locally in March 2017, the current D23-generation Navara range in South Africa comprises seven derivatives, all in the double-cab body style and all powered by a 2,3-litre, fourcylinder turbodiesel worth 140 kW and 450 N.m. In 2018, global sales of the bakkie reached 231 435 units, representing a six percent increase yearon-year. Article written by Ryan Bubear carmag.co.za
HYUNDAI has announced its upcoming new entry-level crossover will be badged as the “Venue”, confirming the vehicle will be unveiled at the New York International Auto Show in April. Known internally at the Korean automaker as the “QXi”, earlier rumours suggested the baby crossover would be called the “Styx”. But a fresh press release from Hyundai confirms the Venue badge will be used. So, what’s the thinking behind the moniker? Well, the automaker typically names its SUVs after a city or place (think Kona, Tucson and Santa Fe, for example), but has strayed slightly from that strategy, with the new badge referencing a “place where people want to be seen” and symbolising a “trendy, unique style”. The Venue is expected to slot into Hyundai’s burgeoning crossover range below the Creta and Kona, with the SAspec version likely to be imported from India. In February 2019, SangYup Lee, head of the Hyundai Global Design Centre in Namyang, told MotorTrend the new model would be “smaller” and “distinctively different than Kona". Lee added the new crossover featured a "very, very distinctive two-box area”. “So imagine Kona as a really fast profile, distinctive, iconic character to it, but this one is almost very boxy, bold, bull-doggy character," he told the USbased publication at the time.

Stunning new GWM interior GREAT WALL Motors recently revealed the first image of a new double-cab bakkie that’s expected to replace the Steed. And now the Chinese automaker has released a shot of the upcoming bakkie’s interior. According to CarAdvice, the cabin depicted in the image on the right comes from the “Urban” derivative (rather than the “Adventure” variant). As the Australian publication points out, the new bakkie’s interior boasts quilted leather (for the seats and door panels) complete with contrast stitching, as well as what appears to be leather atop the facia. The steering wheel, meanwhile, takes on a four-spoke design and looks to be heated, if the button alongside the gear-lever is anything to go by. You’ll also notice what appears to be the brand’s 9,0-inch touchscreen integrated into the centre of the dash, sited above a set of physical buttons, with air-vents on either side. From what we can see, this derivative boasts items such as heated seats and hill-descent control, along with an electronic parking brake, a handful of driving modes and push-button start. The CarAdvice report claims the new bakkie will gain an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission (complete with a low-range setting), likely linked to a 2,0-litre, fourcylinder turbodiesel offering somewhere in the region of 140 kW and 450 N.m. Expected to make its debut at the Shanghai motor show, the fresh-faced bakkie from GWM will likely ride on a ladder-frame chassis set to be shared with the nextgeneration Haval H9.

Ford SA drops four-pot Mustang
How is this for an SUV? Meet the VW Atlas Base Camp MEET the Volkswagen Atlas Basecamp Concept, a show car featuring custom body parts, a suspension lift kit, bespoke wheels (complete with all-terrain tyres), a roof rack with bike mounts and even off-roading light bars. Set to debut at the 2019 New York International Auto Show (before fittingly moving on to the 2019 SEMA Show), the Basecamp Concept is the brainchild of Alex Earle, exterior design manager at the Volkswagen Design Centre in California (and avid cyclist). Using the Atlas SEL Premium as the base, the Basecamp Concept is painted in a mix of "Platinum Grey" and "Black Uni", complete with a matte finish and a smattering of orange accents. Power comes from the standard 3,6-litre VR6 engine, driving all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. A set of “fifteen52” Traverse MX Concept wheels are used, wrapped in 265/70 R17 all-terrain rubber. Additional accessories include a custom body kit by Air Design, an H&R suspension lift kit (with coilover springs that raise the ride height around 38 mm), a Front Runner Slimline II roof rack system (complete with bike holders), off-road LED bars (fore and aft), as well as various protective interior add-ons. The Basecamp Concept is coupled with an off-road-capable Hive EX compact expedition trailer, featuring matching wheels and tyres. The camper is equipped with a queen-size bed, a pull-out canopy and a kitchenette, the latter complete with a stove, sink and refrigerator/freezer combo. Other integrated features include a self-contained water tank, a propane tank, a portable toilet, a hot shower and removable levelling jacks. Article written by Ryan Bubear - carmag.co.za
FORD Motor Company of Southern Africa’s latest price bulletin does not include the four-cylinder Mustang, with the range now comprising only 5,0-litre V8 derivatives. Before the start of April 2019, the local Mustang line-up featured six derivatives. But that number has been halved to three with the removal of the trio of EcoBoost models from the Blue Oval brand’s official price list. That leaves three eight-cylinder variants, priced from R872 200. The previous 2,3-litre four-cylinder base model had been priced from R728 500, with its turbocharged heart offering 233 kW and 430 N.m (compared with the 306 kW and 530 N.m delivered by the naturally aspirated V8). Of course, South Africa is still awaiting the arrival of the facelifted Mustang (revealed as long ago as January 2017), with a small shipment of Bullitt special-edition models also expected to be offered locally.
