Didn't you roll with a bottie in your cage, man?
Guest Frail4Life Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Didn't you roll with a bottie in your cage, man?I carried my "normal 2 bottles". 2 Different drinks, i only carry Water on the longer rides.But today I was 3/4 way through my first drink, when i started to feel very Quesy.
DJR Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Frail doesn't need to eat or drink at all, something must be wrong. The only thing Frail needs to ride is a bike, any bike! Slowone 1

pbp2007 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Thanks from Kirstenbosch Lions to all those who rode and supported. We actually had a good turnout (about 825 paid) considering there was only one route - and that a 50 km. It was a tough ask this year to run an event at all given the circumstances - no Ou Kaaps, no Kalk Bay corner - but we decided to try to keep the ride going rather than cancel or postpone.And a thank you to PPA for helping to push things along even when we wondered if the ride was going to happen at all. To give you an idea, we got our event permit on Friday afternoon... Edit: a couple of literals Edited January 6, 2013 by pbp2007 DJR and ccc2 2

To give you an idea, we got our event permit on Friday afternoon... Yes, thank you for all the behind the scenes work as well as for the friendly marshals at intersecrions. We had a great ride on a really beautiful morning. Personally I think the City of Cape Town was just full of bull manure about giving permission for this wonderful ride. There was absolutely no traffic to speak of on Ou Kaapse Weg at the start time and very light traffic coming back via Kalk Bay afterwards. I truly cannot imagine how this race could have caused traffic problems. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Slowone Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Could not ride but i was there with my son.He say it was well organised and the marshals was ausum ............... Well done to ALL involved. Edited January 6, 2013 by Slow_one -Az- 1
Kimma Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Nice ride stunny views, loved Misty cliffs. Awsome work done by pedal power marshals and boy was there alot of them.
'Dale Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Water? I thought 'The Frail' dont need water. The Frail's been on holiday and let dust gather on his bike.I've NEVER heard of that before. Some things change.
