Sometimes it's best to listen to your body.

Sit up, ride easy, appreciate the outdoors and fight another day.

This is good advice. Not always necessary to race, just ride and enjoy the freedom. [emoji106]

Very popular scuba diving spot, there is an old submerged village under that water.

Not sure if diving in dry suits can be considered scuba diving tho....

Flipping awesome!

Really !!!! Woohoo im off tomorrow!

 

It is "open"...i.e. trail builders let us know that you are welcome to use the trails, but they will not provide support or maintain the trails. The trails is in a bad state, Aap DHuez climb has about 10 tree across the trail and the start of Full Monty 2 is eroded badly. Entrance to Full Monty 3 is blocked by a tree.

Great riding weather lately on the Highveld but damn the wind is starting to wear me down... Since I'm generally going out towards the south and back it's almost always (no not almost, every single frikkin time) a headwind coming back [emoji53]

Ja ja I know it's good 'training' but just a little break would be nice [emoji12]]

Couldn't agree more,fed up with getting battered solo. But that’s the problem with living in Mordor ????

Still less wind and climbs than the Pennines mate . Damn those were some solo tough rides,but oh so peaceful. The suffering was always worth it a 100 fold .

Along some canal and country roads.

I came across a guy at a bridge taking photos, had a bit of a chat and it turns out he is one of the now many Saffas here.

 

I also learned that the odd colour in the middle of the road (especially under the trees) is moss and should be avoided as it’s slippery as hell
