  15. 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
