  1. ....mens vra nooit 'n vraag as jy nie self die antwoord ken nie. (Kom kuier, when in Lec Cap in die Boland Bosch.)
  2. iKubu's Backtracker Highly successful Garmin got the team to make some small changes True about brands The pay was good.
  3. Five riding days Four overnight venues Single and sharing accommodation Day options possible (shuttles before and after stages offered) Two meals a day Fuel and food en route Different levels / different groups tdbcycling.com
  4. Mugg 'n Bean Stellenbosch was awash with riders yesterday. Typical groups entering Stellenbosch were 8-10 apiece.
  5. In the old days, Tours were conducted in the winter, miniming risk on most fronts. The Giro never had to cancel stages, as a summer event, why? (Or did they, ever?)
  6. Hard course? In what sense, asking from a not-knowing perspective.
  7. Like: two hours max from a regional and / or major airport, approx 1000 tourism beds in town, 8-15 restaurants, a funding partner, friendly towards cycling, plenty of social development opportuntities.....anyone know a few towns like this in the country?
  8. he started the biz before 11's were invented
  9. goodness gracious - and ancient Rome though they knew about orgies?

  13. Simonsrust shopping centre for parking. It is 'safe' once you are over Helshoogte.
  14. such a solid idea; now, how does one do that?
  15. We are looking at re-introducing the TdB from 2020 onwards - with a nice twist or two - so a poll might advise whether it should be clover-leaf or a "real" tour. Anyone keen to share a few more needs, before we establish a poll?
  16. All thanks muct go to CSA and ASG in assisting us in achieving our latest status: one of the coolest, most profitable and enjoyable cyclo-tours in the province....and it is still just a sideline.
