KWAZULU-Natal’s biggest motorbike rally made a big splash at Alkantstrand in Richards Bay over the weekend.
The Hippo Rally annually draws around three thousand bikers from around the country to enjoy a weekend of camping at the beach with Zululand’s perfectly good weather. But it is not all fun and games – the great gathering contributes generously to various causes.
It also has clean record of no deaths or major accidents, which organisers say they ‘intended to keep it that way’.
