Definitely, this is one of the "safest" and nicest places to live at in SA. We are very fortunate. If you do the Attakwas Mtb race you can camp here by us as we host the finish and start for the short one.

Sommer just a little spin to celebrate that I'm not working today, the sun is shining,and the world is a beautiful place. On the way back I stopped at Woodstock Cycle Works to go look at what frames are hanging from the rafters......you know, as an anniversary present for the wife  

 

(Yes, I edited the living daylights out of the picture, just because today needs a little creativity! It was taken at WCW)

I always keep an eye out for new street art along my usual road riding routes. At first I thought this was a 69 when I flashed past, but when I turned around to have a proper look, it proved to be as innocent as I am!

i suppose that is the artist's way of hoping you will come again to their neighbourhood..?

at FUN Gaalen this weekend the annual 24H took/is taking place  

Weather forecast was completely turned on it's head and instead of a shower during the day yesterday, it bucketed last night causing mayhem with the trails for the night ride and this morning...

however, a great time was had by all and I understand is still being had by some now.

I could only a time for 1 photo taking lap (awesome route btw) yesterday.

I went a bit bos with photo taking, might share more of my plethora (or as one would say in Afrikaan, n k*khuis vol) later

Cape Town Moonlight Mass with Daniel, Deon & Beattbox. There was a real super vibe in the city centre with the switching on of the Christmas lights. Crowds were everywhere and especially Long Street was packed even more solid than usual, with parties spilling into the street. (It reminded me of Bourbon Street in New Orleans.) The beer on Green Market Square was the best I've tasted for a long while. Right time, right people, right place, right taste!

With options like this why not commute

Disused train tracks at the edge of town

[DJR]

Jonkershoek, after an all too long absence.

 

Very nice flowy bermy single track all over the place. Not sure what I did and what I didn't do, because the signage is a bit sketchy. Tried to to everything. OK, maybe it just feels like I did. Super fun. Now I'm a happily broken man.

okay, not the bike ... but the car

 

 

Had to be IN Cape Town early this morning.

 

So I drove in even earlier, in town by 6:30, then drove up to Signal Hill

 

WOW !!!!!!

 

 

MANY cyclists and joggers up there that time of the morning !!

 

 

and what a view !

[DJR]

................then drove up to Signal Hill..........WOW !!!!!!..............

What you should do, because it is one of the most scenic "urban" rides anywhere on earth, is to ride up to Kloofneck, best is from Camps Bay side. Or drive if you feel like, then ride the whole length of Tafelberg road, from Signal Hill all the way to Devils Peak and back. The view, and how it changes, with you looking out over the Atlantic, over Table Bay, Robben Island, the City Bowl, Blouberg in the distance, Tafelberg towering behind you, is just fantastic. A big chunk of the road is closed to cars, and the rest is pretty safe because the traffic is slow. It's a good bit of exercise too if you cross over from Signal Hill to the Cable Car side, nice climb. The total of Tafelberg road out and back makes for roughly 20 km. If you add riding up, you can work more than enough to call it training. It is Team DJRs little shake down ride the day before the Argus. Also, if I feel like a short sharp one from home, I go there. Sometimes on the Road bike, sometimes on the Mountain bike, then I take a shortcut over Rhodes Memorial and the kings Blockhouse. The picture was taken a few months ago when we did a slow and easy ride on the old classics.

DJR there was actually a group 4 or 5 MTB riders that got "down" from signal hill side and crossed over the traffic circle and headed up toward the cable car .....

 

And the cars had a totally different "attitude" that time of the morning - as most cars on that section of road was also there to walk, run or cycle ....  WISH cars could be like that on other roads ...

 

 

 

If you saw a little red car with the driver waving at cyclists this morning - that was me
