Tubehunter Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Tempted Andre.... If I don't get in a long ride on Saturday, then I'll meet up for this one! Will catch you guys coming through Claremont if I do ride.
Tubehunter Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 coming through mowbray on liesbeek parkway? Yep that's the route they follow! Andre, I've got a reroute for you of one section that will take you on a testing climb you've likely not had the pleasure\misfortune of tackling before. Will add roughly 1km to your total distance but certainly be a tasty challenge!
Wannabe Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 J, don't want it to be a sufferfest. Think the wind will bring it's own challenges on the day. Rock, yes, through Mowbray on Liesbeekpark, past Newlands. Cadenceblur, avg of between 23-25km/h at the end of the 118km.

Wannabe Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 This is one of the windiest Decembers in a long time. Wonder what Jan and Feb holds?

HeadDown Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I'm in. Are you coming down Liesbeeck Parkway again? If so I'll jump on the bus in Rosebank. About 06h30 I imagine??
