Well I got some of that 'secret training' in - 2hr 50, 84Km. Ave 29.6Km/H.... SE wind nailed me big time - Visited my (oom)bothma(se)kloof - not as bad as it used to be.

 

Will see what the weekend has in store Geno, but for now I am in.

 

Great training ride, SirK!

 

Hope to see you. Don't wanna face the Century on my own...

OH! it wasn't a SE - was a NE..... so had wind all the way coming from the side and front!!

Myself and SirK went out for a Century.

Left Palm Grove parking lot at 08h06.

 

Headed into the Northwester for a tough ride into Atlantis.

Flew back to Blaauwberg at 45 km/h with the tail wind.

And had the side wind carry us somewhat over Tiekiedraai.

 

Lekka!

 

:D

Geno, you putting some serious base training in. Well done, will stand you in good stead this coming season.

You guys planning anything this coming long weekend? Need to get some km in myself. Sat and Mon.

yeah was a great ride Geno - had a bit of a sore lower right back but got the wife to massage..... aaaahhh the life.

 

Guys, I was thinking - because next Saturday is Geno's 'easy week', how about we do Monday ride instead of Saturday? Can do either one..... I am hoping to get a bit of stuff done next weekend so Monday would be perfect to let the weekend be a full one.

 

Let me know what you lot think... have a good week ahead!

Yeah, Wannabe, promised myself to have a good winter in training.

 

There will be ride this long weekend. Watch this space.

Seems like Monday is a popular choice for many riders...
