Jeez Merweville is the saddest place I have been to in SA. It really is bleak and dreary with only a pretty church building to brighten it up a bit.

Sorry this was in reply to DJR earlier post. Still trying to figure out the new improved Bikehub????

Like that. ????. I knew that but thought DJR post was the last one on the topic. Only saw there was another page afterwards.

I think quite the opposite. Met some locals and had dinner and drinks with them last night. A lot of fun. 

Did you stop there or just pass through?

Stopped for an hour or so and walked around. Saturday morning. Everything was closed. Was a bit of a depressing place.

Feels like forever since I have done a ride that is not a commute.

Did a PPCC club ride yesterday, in the Polokwane game reserve. I then did a second loop in the reserve, solo, to make it my first century ride since 2019.

My body can feel it this morning.

A few hours break from the rain, almost enough time ???? for a 50k ride with 2 short but steep Tour de Suisse climbs to test the cassette 32T gear

Finish line on the climb, complete with bottom to top timing machine

Hard luck. Wishing you a good recovery.

New bike?

With that weather I ended up not going to Uitkykpas for my workout. I checked on Strava and found a nice climb right after Citrusdal... I love riding that side

A climb so nice it gave me a +14w eFTP bump on intervals.icu after a 10mins all out effort, and +39w on Strava (absolutely ridiculous :D).

I think I must stick to the road bike for those workouts, the Stages PM+ovals+175 cranks on the MTB seem to give very generous results
