I think we love this place equally. The view, Northwards from where the road crosses the top of Faircape, inspired me enough to make a quick sketch when I got home. Next time I'll make one looking South to include Table Mountain

You don't have to choose gravel over anything .... it's just another cool bike thing to do 😎

Gotta tell you folks, all these “big sky” pics loaded recently make my heart lus. We just don’t get that here in what has been a very grey and miserable winter.

I lived in the UK for 8 years before coming back. While the winters were pretty miserable one of my big regrets was not popping over to belgium to watch cyclocross (on TV it looks like a great vibe) and some of the cobbled races. So if you manage to do that, you will be making at least one person from big sky country a little bit jealous.

I am Belgian so go across 4 or 5 times a year. My cousins are all into cycling so they take me to velodromes mostly. Last one we went to is the eddy merkx ( named ) in Gent. Never been to a cyclocross event but next time it’s on my list. 
 

This has been the greyest wettest winter I have been through and this is my 10th winter in the uk. Saw the sun today and just stood on the garden like a sunflower. You will know what I mean.

Ah right! Well I hope you enjoy it. I recently read a book called "The best, the emperor and the milkman: a bone-shaking tour through cyclings flemish heartlands" - basically an englishman touring flanders watching as many classics as he can, fueled on beer and fries/frites. Sounded like fun, at least for a day or two.
