Frosty Posted September 3, 2022 Share Spring is here, so started before sunrise; daughter’s birthday party happening at 09:00. Apparently I’m mad going out dressed like this. 'Dale, Scary Rider, TheoG and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted September 4, 2022 Share Did a virtual ride on Rouvy, and it has got me thinking of a possible Tour across Lesotho ending down Sani Pass (when it’s eventually tarred). Some awesome views. Jackal355, Scary Rider and gerriemtb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted September 4, 2022 Share 3 weeks since my fall ... At least been able to 'race' the avatars the passed few days.

Some awesome views. Why wait for 9km of the trip to be surfaced (could be unlikely at a projected cost of R1bn). A few years ago I was at the top and a few hard men on gravel bikes came up Sani having ridden from Nottingham Rd. Stop snivelling and get out there (TIC).

A few members of the club only have skinny wheel bikes, and the back up vehicle would need to be able to ride down Sani pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was at Sani a few weeks ago - the "no man's land" between the border posts is pretty rough and rocky as well as a few spots with some ice. After the SA border the surfacing is complete and the road is beautiful. But I'm sure you know this. Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's pleasantly surprised how quick it's healed. One small spot that must close up on the tip of my nose ... A few days 😁 No more dressings required which is a big relief, crappy walking around with plasters and gauze on the lip and nose Off to the dentist Wednesday morning to get that sorted. Need to see him in a months time, might need a small incision on the nose with just 1 stitch, unlikely though Should be on the bike by the weekend if all goes well DJR, ChrisF, Scary Rider and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ouzo Posted September 7, 2022 Share Was just starting to enjoy the ride and then I picked up a nail in the tyre. Literally right after putting the phone away to take this pic. (BTW that is ride time not elapsed time :) ) TheoG, Frosty and Scary Rider 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
