The Namibian MTB XC season kicked off with a race at Okapuka ranch just outside Windhoek.  Namibia has been suffering from a terrible drought for the last couple of years, so the very good rains of the last two weeks was so welcome.  Made for a very muddy and sticky race!

Classic bike Atlantic ride with Beattbox. His Lejeune now 30 years old, my Merckx 25, and the y are still great fun to ride. Solid, comfortable, reliable.

 

Coming back through the Waterfront we checked out the boats getting ready for The Cape 31, Royal Cape Yacht clubs' premier regatta. A dozen identical, Cape Town designed and built racers, sailed by invitational international crews. Something to be very proud of!

 

Edit: See correction further down

:D Yup, you simply have to make the most of a day like today, because, just like whiskey, it doesn't last! ;)

Been a while since I rode anywhere worthy of posting.

This place really brings some perspective to one's technical riding ability. Specifically short steep ups.

 

Shortly after this, took a stab at the XCO track, and ended up eating some boulders on the Rock garden (forest more like it). Called it a day after that.
