BenReaper Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 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. ChrisF, fanievb, Eddy Gordo and 8 others 10 1

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?

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.

NotSoBigBen Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 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." BenReaper, Pikey, ChrisF and 6 others 6 3
The Ouzo Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 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.

I thought it was never windy in GP 15/20 knots on the way down to town this morning, it wasn't so lekker but then on the way back cruising at 40kph made it worth it
