Not all rides are measured by how far you've ridden or even how long, sometimes it's just where you went!

Some good climbing roads getting up to that tower

Riding from Alberhoughton town side it's longer than one would think ... From the top there to Klipriver road, an interesting ride that's no lie but didn't feel 'unsafe'

Just felt like doing something different

Brutal event. Not particularly gravel friendly, with some sections through the forests just unbearable. 

Serious test of fitness.

yeah, some of those areas up there are "interesting"

for a few years the "fast one" used to pass through there, but even many years before that, we had friends that stayed near there, it always felt "interesting"

@MORNE , do your circle of riding friends still know you?

One day you're riding Bloemendal, then BOOOOOM!!!! 

Tokai AND Witfontein for the first time in the space of three weeks...

Do you still identify as a cyclist, or have you become a "rider"? There's therapy for what you're experiencing.
