Where has your bike taken you today?

[Uni]

Due time constraints, my mates and I sadly gave Fun Gaalens a miss and rode closer to home...  

Quick spin through Avianto's Phambili trail at sunrise then onto some of the Cradle MTB loop ....

From yesterday's Enduro. Snapped by Chris Hitchcock. This was just before I passed the guy in front of me.

Did you pass him, or did he swiftly move over?,..at the sight of two approaching biceps in his peripherals!? ????

I was out on my bike in Eden for the first time this morning. This after 2 months from a life saving surgery. 

 

The ride was most enjoyable, and now I also know exactly where I stand. 

My fitness levels didnt change much or my strength. But i did not feel as full of "energy" as I probably should. I felt very tired and not powerful, so not sure if "energy' is the right word!

 

 

 

A bit arb but the only Pic I managed to take.

On Saturday the bike took me for 53kms around the cradle before i snapped a chain sprinting for a gap in the traffic on the top of Northern Timbers hill (about 10km from home) and nearly went over the bars in the process and also nearly fell under the wheels of the cars I was trying to get around.

 

Plus got me some select bruises on the inside of my legs as I hit the stem.

 

THe fact I didn't go OTB is a miracle and if someone had it on Youtube I reckon it would be viral....

 

Then on Sunday the CX bike blew the tire off the rim before i got out the garage much to my wife's amusement. Dogs scattered and barked the place down

 

So this weekend I reckon the cycling gods were indicating that I should stay home and sit and watch the Roubaix.

LOL. I passed him when he messed up a series of root steps.

No riding today ... Work doodies....

But I did get to experience what is almost as good as riding a bike.... (sometimes... Just as good, to me)

Seeing a bike shiny clean

Did a ride with a couple of mates this morning around the Slanghoek valley.We explored some newly built trails and if these are for the Gravel & Grape stage race you guys are in for a treat.Was a long day in the saddle as the other two were very unfit and I am suffering from a slight cold and the 80km road almost got the better of us.

We passed this little guy on the road.Some of the new singletrack.Some beautifull views from the top of the trail.We made a pitstop at Goudini Spa to have a Coke and a rest in the shade before tackling the last 25km home.
