Yep

He was with one of the Breitling teams

I rode with him up Tradouw Pass - pulling one handed wheelies in between pushing team mates.

Lekker vibe

 

Don't you just hate that! 

 

Did my first DC in 2017 on a loaner road bike, such a vibe. Have penned in 2020 for nommer twee!

Should at the very least have a decently fast gravel bike by then.

Powermeter must be broken or a world tour team is missing a rider

Turns out his did break and strava estimated it, when I checked strava on the app did not know was estimate. It was only 281w!

 

Also said I did not believe the power meter.

What a great event.

this was my first DC and i will definitely be back!

 

La Passione was nice enough to invite me into their team.

A great group of riders who brought some serious GEES!

Our goal was to finish with all our riders

unfortunately we had a bit of an oopsie at 95km which sadly meant 3 members of our team were unable to continue - recovery well boys and girls!

 

overall we were really happy with our result.

loved the atmosphere

What was the Oopsie?

One of the guys hit a cateye, bars shot clean out his hands

Could have happened to anyone of us

What a great event and even better to be surprised with a tail-wind at the turn after Drew.

 

I wonder how many people got tripped up by the sandy section at the bridge just before the three sisters though?

 

Also seemed to be a year of many, many punctures.

 

Can't wait until next year's event now.

Was there a lady involved as well? Saw medics helping her in the aftermath of what seemed a big crash just before Montagu

Was it your team that went down? One of your lady riders looked like she was knocked out and likely concussed based on the helmet damage
