Theres a "Sour Fig" in the back ground

 

There could've been two figs if you accepted my invitation to roll with us.

:-D

Wednesday will be great. One suggestion; lets do your route the other way round. I rode it the other day and the wind along Plattekloof was a pain.

 

Ok, we can do this Wednesday, we can discuss the logistics of the route tomorrow morning. So meeting at the circle at Durbanville HS at 5:30am, pace is going to be relaxed though

[Boreas]

Had a very nice ride. Did 90km at an 27km/h avg. Wind never was a factor, although it got hot towards the end. Finished after 10AM, and temp already was 33deg C.

 

 

Thanks for the ride, Andre, you guys are really lucky with the nice surroundings in which you can cycle. Pretty decent roads for cycling as well with big shoulder.

Look at Peter, he don't look too happy.... By the way, thanx again for that awesome ride on Saturday, I wanna do it again....

Just climbed up Constantia Neck from the "wrong side"! Even my face muscles were tired.

I agree with climbing Constatia from the "wrong side" that was insane, but a good experience, I don't think I'll be doing that climb again in a hurry....

Is that the side from Hout Bay?

 

Ride it most Tuesdays and Thursdays. Not bad once you get used to the sufferfest.

It's an awesome climb until one hears the growl of a truck's engine behind one's rear wheel...

Capcha, saw you this morning. You were standing at the Traffic light on the corners of Eversdal and Okavango rd (Cape Gate). I hooted at you repeatedly to try and get your attention, you looked around but obviously did not see me hanging halfway out the window, waving at you. http://1.1.1.3/bmi/cdn.bikehub.co.za/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png. When the light changed you carried on straight in the direction of Kraaifontein.
