There you smile, DD...

 

This is seconds after your ascent up Vissershok. Early 2011. :whistling:

A more serious and intense moment in cycling.

 

That was the day of my first Vissers ascent (I think) - DD and UDXCOB still joked after that first bump, asking me what I thought of Vissers....... I knew they were talking k@k that that was Vissers. The mist was so thick you couldn't see more than 10m ahead of you so Vissers was an interesting ride for me, not knowing where the top was going to be.

"So, what are the best wheels for me to get, M...?"

 

'you see K, these wheels are bomb proof, but a set of custom built wheels would be best for your weight'...... LOL

 

Not what I want to hear at the best of times - I NEED deep sections!

That was your true initiation into becoming a D Ville Roadie.

Feels like years ago.

I told smallh that I needed to get deep sections to make my breaks to stick. She said she'll start crying so long :whistling:

That is a lekka hill for repeats with an initial slow easier grind and then a nice spike in ascent.

Did Vissershok (down only), Malanshoogte (up and down and back again), Contermans and Tiekiedraai yesterday afternoon. Man, it was hot and windy out there. Was one hell of a workout climbing Malans, Contermans and Tiekiedraai into that wind and in the heat.

Looks like you're training for the 99er with that choice of route...

Not a chance!! Training for the World Funride Champs in March. Is my 10th in a row, and want to make it my best also.
