Alberton _ JHB South Riders

[Slave]

Ok, So this is Google Earth pic of Amanda Ave, Glenanda North.

[Cyclewizz]

I know where it is.

You come out by that Shell garage on Rifle Range.

[Slave]

That's the one. Used to be a KFC there as well. Just above Klipriver Drive.

 

Used to ride up there and then through Mondeor when I did a little bit of training for the 2007 cycle challenge. It was either that one or up Vorster.

Sounds like a plan! As long as we can get to Xumbugs in time for the Nampak loop. What time would we need to leave? From Xumbugs where do we go? I think I may park at Panorama this time.

[Slave]

Andy. I am not planning to do the Nampak Loop. I was thinking of the longer circus loop which will incorperate one or two other little speed bumbps in the road. I don't think I am fast enough yet for the fast bunch so if we can get enough takers. we can organise our own little crowd again.

[Andyr249]

I was thinking along the lines of our own group for "Part 2" of the ride. Part one been the little hill exploration.

Maybe the Princess will ride Part 2 with us.

@Slave

Some people from the social group also go long.

 

You could always leave with the fast group & then when they split on the Lido hill just join one of the slower groups.

[Ha Ha Kieran]

Hill part??? What Hill part?

[Slave]

Hill part??? What Hill part?

 

Ay carumba. Another one with simian genes.....

 

Andy, dude. I think you aught to be sentenced to 40 lashes with a wet noodle for scaring the Princess away. You insulted her bike and now you want her to go on a long ride around the extreme south of JHB / Vereeniging.

 

If the bike slap didn't work, this sure will.

 

Ha-Ha, I think you and Andy need to hook up and you can be our representative and take him on a tour de south. Show hi all the neat little speed bumps we have hidden away to keep the northern folk where they belong. North of the CBD.

[Ha Ha Kieran]

Ha ha ha ha ha! But if I show Andy the really good speed bumps we have, he will move out South

Mona doesn't go long. She only ever does the short loop. (To the best of my knowledge.) Imagine tagging along with her on a long one loop???

 

Eish, I get a headache just thunking about it. (Admin, there is a serious need for a "cry" smiley.)

Slave, you read like Kid adds!

 

I am not scaring the Princess away. That is why I suggested the hills at 5am followed by the flat Nampak loop at 7am.

 

Ha Ha, I would live wherever there are nice big hills! Preferably at the top!

[Slave]

Ha-Ha. Thanks for the brochure. Got it on Friday night. I will let you know later. I am looking at a 63 cm Colnago. As soon as the chapp gets in touch with me, I will make a plan to look at it.

 

EDIT: DEleted duplicated part of post.

Who is Mona, was she riding yesterday?

 

Btw, Slave, what happened after Hummy and I paced at the front? I was keeping my pace the same as Hummy and riding alongside him.

Ok, you win. I was thinking of doing a couple of little hills and then going on the long loop. I got stuck there and you got stuck on the shorter Nampak Loop.

 

Then I remembered I have a 300 km commute this week, so maybe the short loop will be just dandy for me, if I can interest the other climber to take you on a 5am tour de hills. (not Beverley Hills.)

 

That is of course, if I survive the commuting. I think it's time for me to go and drink the rest of my energade and begin chanting the Mantra.

 

I will make it home, I will make it home. I will zzzzzzzzz.

 

In hushed whisper.

 

(psst, do not disturb. The tjop fell asleep.)

Andy rode for the 1st time in the south yesterday & now he doesn't want to leave.

Bloody lawyers :angry:

 

Andy, just make sure you pay your VISA fees.
