So the swartberg fondo didn't happen but I still went out to Prince Albert for the weekend. I rode up swartberg pass on saturday and loved it so much I went up the next day as well. Who needs the stelvio when you have this in your back yard? 

Was nice meeting you and the missus Nick

This is the best way to wrap up a day that started so well ...

Sunday saw me on the bike for the second time this year, first time was the 9th of Jan.

Note to self: should probably start with something smaller than a 60km after a 8 month absence.

Which trail was this? I normally don't venture further than bloemendal/hillcrest.

Thanks, I'll give that traverse a try, looks interesting compared to the cow dung on the protea hotel traverse. I see on trail forks you can also go via the st johns rd link, do you know if it's open or did you just want to go the extra km's?

I enjoy the view from the Odendaal exit.  Also the fast decent down Odendaal ....

 

Do believe St John is open.

 

 

I enjoy the circular route .... in via Protea, out via Traverse. May just do it in reverse next time .... less of a rush to get off Traverse, time for coffee at Bloemendal and more time for more of Bloemendal .... and less tar in peak traffic.

Hoogekraal and Welvergenoegd. Another stunning morning out there.

Denial: "Man, riding is hard today. I must've slept funny, or had too much to drink last night, or something."

Anger: "$&@%*!, @$&%*%ing *@&#*$!"
 
Bargaining: "Come on, just let me make it back home. I won't even ride tomorrow, just let me get there today."

Depression: "I hate the weather. I hate weathermen. I hate the sky. Curse this cruel, uninhabitable world."

Acceptance: "Ugh, headwinds. At least I won't have to do intervals this week."

very p'd off with myself.

My bike has taken me nowhere this week.

Monday - rest day

Tuesday had to be at the office at a sparows fart

Wednesday - check the weather, to windy

Today - check the weather, to windy.

I should have just ridden, its only a head wind in one direction.

Rest of the week looks like crappy cold weather, so I think I'll have to climb on the IDT again for a few days.
