Where has your bike taken you today?

[DJR]

Took in a bit off off road through Rondebosch (Eroica training  ) on the way home after work. Bloody disgusting to see the litter against the wall of Groote Schuur, the official residence of the President of the country. Just a bit further on it got even worse. Disgusting. Bloody DA City Of Cape Town should get a poke in the eye and clean up a little bit.

Bergplaas above the 7 passes road near Hoekwil - Decent summer rain has seen it green up after the fires decimated it. These rocks always intrigue me.  Sometimes there's a pile, sometimes not.  I have been planning to appropriate some for ages but can't find the right luggage rack

Gorgeous evening light

Endurance, tempo, intervals & recovery.....aka a *** rond trap????

[BenReaper]

Managed to get a ride in before it got hot this morning, planned a chilled "klim oor di plaas hekke" ride but it started so well that I stuck to the open road and dirt highways.

Spot of mud and rain today at Route66

[NotSoBigBen]

The roads of the south in a bit of a mess after all the rain, had countless punctures ... I used my spare tube and all 6 of the patches I had as well as an extra 'stick on' emergency patch and was still far from home!

 

As luck would have it that wheel set, built from a lot of stuff in my garage and so on, has a tubby rear and a clincher front. I always carry a spare tubby anyway despite how cumbersome it is. Had a thought as I was contemplating waking my wife up to fetch me in the sticks ... Would a tubby fit over a clincher rim?

 

And lo and behold it does [emoji41] rode 50k's home with it and never felt like it was going to come off or anything! Sadly 6k's from home I had to call the 'team' car to fetch me for a different reason, nothing serious and already sorted luckily [emoji3]

Jonkershoek was on point today.

We were spoiled with low level cloud on the Firehut traverse, and then spoiled with lots of rock rollers on Status Quo.

Flippen cool pics man.Brilliant

Tis but a scratch.

 

Really, it was a scratch, he clipped a tree, hence the lack of dirt. But he is a hard man, and his physio works hard sometimes to keep him from falling apart.
