I'm in..... but it looks like all the others except Marius, are dropping out for various reasons?

 

If it's just you and Marius; I will need to start about an hour before you, as there is no way in hell this old b@stard will be able to keep up your 30kmph ave. !!! I'll be dropped right after Shell garage at foot of Sir Lowries :D :D :D ......so I'm already resigning myself to 140 plus kays on my own :D ..just tell me where in Franschoek will be brunch and I'll meet you there B)

Fand, a word of caution....two weekends ago we came down back Sir lowry's on the old section of tar....don't do it on a road bike...there is a 30m section that is completely covered by broken glass!! seems someone illegally dumped a whole lot of glass there and the "locals" went to town on it with breaking it!! you will be guranteed shrapnel in your tyres!!

 

rather slog up from the G-bay turn off.

 

Bye the way, that spesific ride (i.e down the Sir lowrys hill) was the my worst ever experience on road!! we were cycling up the wapad and over mountain but I got lazy and sore and decided to take a faster /shorte route back down the hill...man, the wind was pumping 100km/h+ there...rememebr the dude's bike that alledgetly got blown over signal hill?? same day! Faarking hell...I shat myself comming down that hill dodging uncomming traffic and bad visibility!! I had to CYCLE downhill!! Now I know why i's rather stick to the mountains...

 

Enjoy the ride!
