This was my 2 nd Trans. The 1st one was in 2011 when we did Langs Baviaans. This one was really awesome. Did it with 2 great guys(Escapee being one of them) and both were very patient with me. Me and the Hills don't agree to much with each other but I eventually get to the top. We had a good day although that second Fang bit me hard and really killed me before attempting the MAC. I thought that i was going to quit the race when I got to the top of bergplaas. When in the Check point I lay down had a cup of coffee and Spoke to my wife and Kids who were waiting for me at Kondoma and that was all the motivation i needed to get going again. I was a new man after that and smiled for MOST of the way back, except never ender and the last Gravel climb before Jeffreys Bay. We finished in a time of 15;17 (17 min slower than planned)
