I will not go as far to say how prepared I am. 

What I can say though this is the best I have ever prepared for a bike race.

Will i suffer probably yes.

Hopefully less than any previous year. i am quietly confident

Certainly the most hill training I've ever done. Once this old motor warms up, it will be OK. The aim of the exercise is to also enjoy it. Places on the podium are long gone by the time I get there. We will all suffer somewhere along the route. But, hey, it is still a lekke way to spend a day in your life.

You've obviously never been the victim of a Cape Town weather forecast...

Starting Checklists tonight. Chip, entry printed to avoid that long Que, Rennies to avoid cramps, elastics to secure waterbottles. Bike, flight tickets, booking for Hartenbos, Uniondale and Knysna etc.... and wife. ,

Let me tell you a little story about the Karoo2Coast.

 

Today, exactly 12 years ago I asked a girl I had met a few days earlier if she would like to take a drive down to Price Albert with me as we had discussed how much we both enjoy the Karoo.

 

Fortunately she said yes and so I had company for the trip and someone to drive my car from Uniondale to Knysna.

 

In October we will celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary and will have made the K2C trip six times since then.

 

Have fun. Work prevents me from going down next week.

Having my 10th wedding anniversary on the 24th. It's usually on K2C weekend so when people as me what my wife is getting for our anniversary I always say a trip to Uniondale and Knysna. 

 

Funny thing is we went to Knysna for our honeymoon back in 2006, that was a full 5 years before I started cycling and doing K2C.

Eina! Een goeie ding wat ek hiervan kan vat is dat mens darm nog lekker kan fietsry met a ACL rekonstruksie, die toekoms lyk helder!
