Left home in Alberhoughton on the MonsterCross at 5:30 damn got colder down to 0° before it started warming a bit! Went to Kareekloof, Malonjeni game farm on the R42 Heidelberg road, Three Rivers Land Rover and on towards Bloekompoort about 10k's from the Vaal Dam. Then back home the same way, 50/50 split tar and dirt road.

Spent much of the day at Northern Farm again. I like that place and it only costs R25 per ride if you get the 20 pass card. Rode with my son until his rear axle broke at 44km.

 

I got up the Grassy hill first and took this one of him.

Even with the problems we still had an awesome ride and got a pretty decent ride in! Love that I can ride with my son!

I really despise winter, and even more so the drearyness of autumn.

 

Did a late afternoon ride with the missus, underestimated how early the sun sets, and had to cut our ride short to make it home in time.

Sorry, had to use heavy filters to make this look like something, because this wasnt named the transvaal for no reason

You are very brave, I would be too afraid of oil leaked by Land Rovers and getting onto my wheels. [emoji38] [emoji102]

Told myself to suck it up and joined a group doing a short slow ride today through Brakpan.

Dusty, coughing up some mine dump dust bunnies, I really need to ride with ppl more to force me to up my speed. Nice patient bunch - nice change of scenery from the bike parks.

Nice Uni. I did a road ride yesterday afternoon. Saw the tiger on the bike behind a juke near Carnival City.
