New cycling equipment, better apparel and a growing awareness of the feasibility of wintertime riding has caused an increase in participation. Click here to view the article
  14. So having looked at the PPA newsletter this jumped out as interesting: If you liked the Coronation Double Century, you’ll love the new road event that we’re working on… The event will take place early in May, in a very scenic upcountry location. As is the case with the CDC, it will be a team-format event, with up to twelve riders per team. More information to follow soon… When they say up country, I hope they are talking, Cape Town's version of up country, as I do not think the WC is flooded for events in May!! Regardless, sounds like an event up our alley! Hopefully any suggestions posted here are read by PPA As per usual, a little self promotion slapped in there for good measure, and people love pictures
