Cardio Goth Posted June 5, 2023 Share Big weekend of prep for 96 Hours - 530kms & 4000+ meters of climbing in 23 hours of riding over 3 days from Vienna, through the Czech Republic into Slovakia and finishing in Bratislava. The stats don't do it any kind of justice - the second day was one of the hardest and most beautiful days of riding I've ever had, especially after covering 210km the day before. nonky, KB280DT, devvydoesdonuts and 27 others 29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were all changing from work clothes to cycling kit in the car, everyone doing the Bib-shuffle in the from seat pretending it was normal.

Just wasnt as dedicated as I am now so did not take enough advantage of it. dasilvarsa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUZERN Posted June 6, 2023 Share Wish that we could still do that. It was such great safe training. Every time I drive past Kyalami I see the track empty and think what a waste. mazambaan and dasilvarsa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I drive past Kyalami I see the track empty and think what a waste. A few years back they built a proper go kart facility in benoni. I enquired a few times via social media if they would be open to having cyclists train there but never had any response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily she was still cleaning the sleep out of her eyes by the time I got home, so I did not get her full attention.
