Our route for the day was to be at a more leisurely pace than the previous two days and would take us from Thaba-Tseka to Thaba Bosiu via a range of interesting points of interest. We stopped in Lesotho’s university town, Roma, to refuel and took the tar road towards our first pass of the day – the Ngakana Pass. It was another picture-perfect day, and all was going well until the radio creaked to life. It was Iaan van Heerden in the VW Touareg warning Theo Hammond in the Ford Wildtrak that a liquid was running out of his vehicle at an alarming rate.
