Where has your bike taken you today?

Took this 27year old out for a ride outside my home town. That makes the combination of rider and bike a hundred years old

Love it when I recognize the roads.

Sometimes when you ride, or in life, which is much the same, you must keep your eyes on the big picture. (Going up the front of Table Mountain.)

Nice early out ride.  What a stunning morning !!

 

 

 

Perfect time to chase some shadows

 

 

Guess my luck had to run out at some point running Sludge in tubes .... let the search begin for 700C45(ish) tubeless ready tires, slicks would be first prize.

 

 

This gent came past me as I was fitting the new tube .... 1km further he was sidelined with a flat.  He waved me past, assuring me he is sorted.  After my coffee stop in Philladelphia we met again ...

 

 

A massive group took up most of the space at Pepper Tree -

 

 

54km out ride .... about 80% of one battery.

 

The return trip directly INTO a "slight breeze" .... 

 

 

30km for the second battery !!!!  A "new record" ...  Had to swop back to the first battery for the last few km of the ride ..... 

 

Those long steep downhills along Adderly road .... BOOST on the ebike, and me in Zone 4, still barely managing 20km/h on the DOWN hills !! 

 

Very nice training ride

Yeah I think some branch got stuck somewhere in the process, when I picked up the chain came off 🤷‍♂️ It was fine after I put it back on

The way we view Chappies during CTCT ... we don't even notice the beautiful ocean view to the left. LOL 🙈

Up the gorge again today. Saw a massive black snake at the top. Not sure what it was but after that every root, shadow and fallen branch looked like a snake.
