Coffee in Graaf Reinet, better than a day in the office despite what lies ahead

Travelling on the N1 to Paarl now and I'm just seeing Trans Bavianers locked and loaded ready to go! Have fun guys! (I'll stay here dealing wif my jealousy..)

 

Same here. Hubby just left. Serious FOMO.

Leaving now for my 5th one, cant wait to get my shield.

Good luck everyone. Travel safely and ride it like you stole it.

What a lot of fun on the bike we had. 17hrs, one less than planned, but we took it real slow for the first half. Amazing how many people we passed once the climbing started.

What an adventure it is!

12:26 for our mixer team. My training didn't work out for the 2nd part of the year and with a trip overseas, and being sick twice. So just took it with no pressure. Ride it and enjoy.

Even though the wind was howling I hear it was largely behind the riders,the times therefore are pretty decent. well done to everyone that completed it. I might see you there next year

12:19.....

Was looking for a 11:30, but my partners free-wheel body disintergrated 30km in!

That tailwind really helped up neverender by that time I was running on empty and that hill at the end against the wind killed me luckily my partner could tow me a bit.

We still road from the mall to the caravan park......froze what was left of my ass off!

Really felt for the guys that were still out there.

There were still 4 teams out when we went for breakfast at 8 this morning.......big balls guys!

14:56 for a 1st time mixed team. Happy with the result, we were expecting 17ish. Congratulations to all who finished, and oh what an epic ride!

LCHF is definitely the way to go for me. After 6 months of experimentation and trial and error I finally felt things in training and nutrition come together. I road the TB on only water in my bottles, a "trail mix" of kaiings, nuts and biltong with a few dates thrown in to fuel the furnace. I had 2 bananas at the waterpoints as well as 2 sosaties. 10:51; almost 5 hours better than my previous time.
