Rouxenator

Nice, but why are so many folks in France right now? Quite a few of the folks I follow on Strava seem to ride there at the moment.

Lekker bit of roadie riding on my new 1x9 setup, much improved over the 1x8.

Things got a little wet in the two weeks since I was last on my regular commute home. The stream in which the bike was standing is flowing nicely

Nice, proper flat pedals.

Nice, shot of me with my skewe nommer there towards the end.

Thanks to everyone that put in a lot of effort to make this happen. All the people were friendly, lots of marshals that smiled and greeted back, proper route marking - really a well organised event. As for the route, that first part until after Fairy Glen was not really memorable or exciting. I know the section that was cut came after Fairy Glen and would have had more of the fun stuff. However it was beyond the control of the organisers - they had to act in the interest of rider safety. Some pics

I think it will be at 9 then, they always go with the latest time when there is a ballsup.

I'll be going slowly through the wet spots, please don't overtake me in a flash and splash me

Filled up my car last Saturday and have not driven it since. It's a toy for me. My bike is my main transport.

Correct, this is my daily commute : https://www.sports-tracker.com/workout/rouxenator/5b195c82f175723ecf0f83a8 that is at about 8.84km into the ride, just after Varsity Dropout. This morning.... fog.... Got to the office and I was a bit.... moist....

Another day, another ride home

Nice, I'm in.

Going to work

This is the first ever ride I will be doing that covers some parts of our family farm. I think the first ever ride to do that was the initial "origin of trails" but seeing as back then they did not offer a comp or discount to land owners it has put a permanent black cross behind Origin of Trails for me. For ever. Stellenbosch "Die Burger" MTB on the other hand has been a far more pleasant affair and having been invited to the 75km a few times, and just the awesome vibe any Dirtopia ride has in general - this will be such a treat for me personally. Bring it on

Coetzenburg, on the way home.

Home

Yeah, a different route than the usual one. It was something else but I hope next year the old route will return.

Entered.
