DJR Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 Karoo - no rain for a whole week - but the extreme dryness of the air gets to you if you're not used to it - nose and throat dries out and it feels like you can't drink fast enough - luckily not too hot. (Yes, I had permission to climb over that locked gate, all it took was a friendly request and I had another 50kms to ride without passing a single soul.) straatvark and Karooryder 2
P.A.K. Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 That's what I feel mountain biking is about, exploring and sometimes just being alone for KMs on end

deanbean Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 That's what I feel mountain biking is about, exploring and sometimes just being alone for KMs on endI have no choice, and I love it. Happy to spend the day on my own riding. But it is better with someone to talk to.
DJR Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Did the South Peninsula "climb everything" ride today all on my lonesome - if it wasn't for the emergency croissant and coffee from that old favourite, Café Olympia in Kalk Bay, I don't think I would've made it back home.
