Brian Fantana Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 So my Attakwas training is going full steam. While training on my girlfriend's dad's farm I came across this awesome view after a very technical climb. I just thought I had to share it with fellow hubbers. Apologies for the bad quality, took the pics with my nokia. It's about 15km outside Middelburg in the EC Stephan2009-12-07 10:10:11
Lotus Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 And to think we normally go racing by in our little metal boxes thinking "I wish I was already in (Colesberg/Richmond/Leeu Gamka/ Beaufort West/Touws River) - what boring countryside - what do they do here for fun?".
SteelyDan Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Hold onto that woman, boet! Stunning! We're off to Tankwa Karoo this weekend for most of next week. Beeeeeeeeeg open spaces.
Willehond Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 GIRLFRIEND'S DAD'S FARM??? If she has any brothers you are screwed. If she doesn't marry her. Quick! Spent my primary school days in Graaff-Reinet and would love to go back there and ride that stunning terrain. Incredibly beautiful, but you have to stop to appreciate it. Don't rush it! I'm guessing tyre sealant is an absolute must with the thorns out there. Have to do this one day
nathrix Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 You lucky bliksem! Wish i had the Karoo in my backyard Here in Gautengeleng i have to duck and dive empty beer bottles and taxis daily. Hold on tight to that woman, you only get a chance like this once in a lifetime!
pistonpomp Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Same here. My wife's dad is farming between Montagu and Barrydale with awesome views and nobody to be seen for miles on end...
X-Gear Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Mmmmmm Almost holiday... Great pics and I agree, hold onto that farm.. I mean girl.
no calves Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 touwsriver has around 600km of the most amazing dirt roads. We can easilly hold a 3-4day event here.
jamex Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Awesome pics.You are getting soft.The Murraysburg crawl was perfect Attakwas training!So what if its was a bit out of the way(lol).Missed a good ride though. Following day had just as a good ride on the farm in Middelburg.Just love riding in that area.
