Suikerbosrand Training - Sunday 1st April

[The Saint]

Did not ride with club 100 but had a fantastic day in the Sugar Bush with Delgado. Pretty much my first time out there - suffered big time but what a fantastic ride.

 

No Taxis, no trucks, no cars and for 20 bucks the sceneary and suffering is well worth it, highlight of the day was a Wildebeest running across the road at full tilt right in front of us.

 

This ride is highly recommended but not for the faint hearted - it's tuff

MuxMan, I agree... well worth the drive out there. R20 per person, R10 for the car and then the rest is priceless ... Our own little Pyrenees here in Gauteng. It's a 58km loop, sounds short but it's a tough work out with some lovely scenery, if you lucky you might get to watch the animals do it like they do on the discovery channel .

And what with me being a Natal fan there can be no better than seeing a Wildebeest in full flight.......great day all round!!

What kit were you guys wearing?

 

i was there in the new Barloworld kit on my silver Scott, with 2 other guys (Jules - Carbon Scott CR1 and his mate Jason - Lapierre 0.9 FDJ), as well as with Amateur on her blue Marin.

 

Sorry should have made a plan too meet up with you!

I was in a Phonak jersey. I thought it would increase my Testosterone "a la Floyd" levels and fly up the climbs but alas it was not to be!!!
