Where has your bike taken you today?

[LOOK695]

This morning, 5 kms outside Stellenbosch, Peacock Climb

With max gradient of 20%

An 11-28 might get you up there if you have the watts in the legs

Some awesome riding next to the Kruger Park Fence. [emoji106]

Hi Lexx, seems quite dry up there? Animals still got water?

[RocknRolla]

I got f@cked up by the wind at the magalies adventure.

No pics, just pieces of my legs all over the show.

It was a massacre.

Its very very dry here. There is a couple of puddles that the animals can drink from, but we need lots and lots of rain...

But all of them still looks fat and healthy, and thats a very positive thing.

Cape Town was showing off a bit yesterday

First time at Karkloof. Properly blew my mind. By far my favourite trail.

Spent the weekend on the trails at Tranquilitas. Great fun as always.

Jonkerhoek red trail. Best ever

Moordkuil river near Little Brak. No trails, only gravel road but managed a short distance alongside the river.

Setting off from the Lion and Rhino Park - 6:30 this morning.

If I was a lion, I would be grumpy as f#ck if those tall steaks keep on being paraded across the way from me....with no way of indulging

I used to have an office window across the road from a Fish & Chip shop. In summer with the window open, around 4pm as hunger started to set in . . .  grim. :-(

Back on the bike last night after a two week break (which did include a FTP test last weekend  - I'm down from the last test but not too much).

 

Last night was a recovery ride in Z2 (167 - 207W or 124 - 145bpm) at >90rpm with no set duration, but I stopped after 40 minutes. Today it feels anything but a recovery ride - legs are a little jelly-like when I walk up the stairs.

 

But it did feel awesome to be turning the cranks again. Tonight: low cadence (50rpm), high torque drills with sandwiched between some more "recovery" pace workouts.
