2012 Burger Route Training Rides

[ZakAttak]

I have been chirping at him for months, Buzz.

Glad he's gonna make the leap.

It'll be awesome.

 

Yeah! Take my hat off to him.... Worked very hard to get where he is today.....

As per the original; post, we start at the Garage at the foot of Helshoogte at 07h00. Plenty of safe parking there.

Depending on how many people arrive, two groups will be formed, a "faster" and "slower" group. Not too sure about the pace, but I suspect the faster group to be in the 25-28km/h avg region.

If not enough faster riders, I suggest we start as one group, faster guys can then attack ascents at will, but regroup on other side.

NO RIDER GETS LEFT BEHIND.

I have 2 more ladies joining us on the slower group! Maybe I can turn Colliehond's other arm to follow us with the bakkie incase someone needs help along the way??? Die man is nie baie happy oor die volgende 6+ weke van geen fietsry nie!

It'll be good for Colliehond to be in the mix.

Lekka to hear you're training, MM.

Sal nogal gaaf wees as hy dit kan doen.

Moet net daardie arm ook afdraai nie.

[SeaBee]

Cool, will come by motorised transport and join you at 7!

 

BTW, you should my number (in the list) upside down... You had to get the semi-superstitious guy down between 12 and 14!

Sy skouer is maar nog baie seer. Have to go back in 4 weeks time for another xray to see if the ligaments are healing, and only then can he start with physio. But the indoor trainer is already set up to keep those sexy legs spinning! He'll miss the Burger Sanlam though, but will be training HARD for the Argus!

If its ok, a friend and myself will join as well.

Havent met anyone of you yet, so it will be good to cycle with new ppl

small issue.

 

Does anyone have the gps coordinates of the garage or slightly more detailed directions. Have not been to Stellenbosch in something like 15 years and before then when I was there I was never sober. Upshot is I have no idea where the garage or Helshoogte is.

[Mads]

The correct adress is corner of Cluver and Helshoogte. please note that my marking is one street block too early.
