What is it like to ride a motorcycle in Cape Town?

Driving around Cape Town is a unique experience. First of all it is important to know that you drive on the left. As for the roads, those close to the city are in perfect condition, but those that move away from it, you will discover that they are not the best to travel by motorcycle. It is important to avoid rush hours, as there is usually a lot of heavy traffic. The maximum speed in urban areas is 60 km/h, 100 km/h on highways and 120 km/h on motorways. However, you will see that the inhabitants do not usually respect these limits. It is normal to see people walking on the shoulders of the road and animals crossing you.
