Then you get there and you have to higher a vehicle that will take a bike in a box inside it. TNT1 1
Robbie Stewart Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Lately wind predictions for Cape Town have been notoriously inaccurate the further ahead the predictions are made. Closer one gets to d-day, the more accurate it becomes - which is typical for this season we find ourselves in where the SE starts ramping up for the December holiday wrecking-ball it becomes. Windy is now showing a stiff SE wind on the lower half of the peninsula - enough to keep the less fit on their toes.
