Tiny K Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 You not training this morning, man? See you midweek then. Was going to go out with Hildi this morning but she was tired from limited sleep during the week - was K@K hot here - 29°C at night!!!!! I am doing the 99'er route tomorrow morning with Sadiq and a few others See you soon man..... Any takers to join the ride tomorrow?
Tiny K Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Well, today's ride was..... interesting and ssslllllloooooooooowwwwwwww 5hr28min for 113.72Km - Average of 20.6Km/H. This with a puncture change (not mine thankfully) There were parts of the route that I couldn't even remember from previous expeditions but we made it in the end. Concerns:1. Roadworks on voor paarde berg (one tonner route). Patches of tar redone but lots of gravel. One lane closed on section of road.2. Roadworks on Klipheuwel road towards the silo's. One lane closed.

Tiny K Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 btw what is the next race planned after 99'er? I am looking at doing the Wilde Cycle Race (19/02) - have lifesaving duty the 20th so can't do Medallion on the Sunday. Any takers?
