_BBi Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Very nice. It is so lovely to be out and about that early in the day.I remember as couple of years back we had 1 month holiday in Cape Town in December. We stayed out in Macasar (at Boys Town) and cycled every day towards Gordonsbay or Stellenboch early in the mornings. Lovely views.
Reg Lizard Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Talking about working up some leg speed, this morning at approximately 4h05 I workedup some serious leg speed when 2 rotweilers were chasing me. After that I was wide awake.
Reg Lizard Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Talk about Xplosive intervals hey Reg Liz ? When something like this happens to you, you very quickly discover what your max heart rate is From 135-183 in a splite sec.
mbaymike Posted October 22, 2007 Author Posted October 22, 2007 Hi, the pics were taken on the way up De Bakke hill and just after the hill when the sun really started coming up. The first pic was taken just opposite santos. Why you ask...do you know the area??
ewep Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Hi' date=' the pics were taken on the way up De Bakke hill and just after the hill when the sun really started coming up. The first pic was taken just opposite santos. Why you ask...do you know the area??[/quote'] Yes, the parentals live in Groot Brak. We try to visit once a year, but we are forced to skip this year. I know the general area. I know where Santos is, but can't place De Bakke
mbaymike Posted October 22, 2007 Author Posted October 22, 2007 De Bakke hill is the one that goes up towards the KFC, Mugg and Bean etc. if you carry on with that road it goes through to Heiderand and Dana Bay Not too long though....about 2.5km.
ewep Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 I know it yes. What is the road that you climb out of M/Bay town towards the Bakke
mbaymike Posted October 22, 2007 Author Posted October 22, 2007 I take it you are referring to the marsh street hill that leaves town and goes up towards the spar and so on. that is a killer...have not had the guts to tackle it yet....lol
