Quite a long ride for this time of the year. Was well dressed up and met Lewton at 8.00. We made our way, a bit indirectly, to the airport. We stopped at Mugg & Bean to have a muffin with Matt.
Today the sewage was flowing freely just before the airport - you're certain to encounter it somewhere in Jo'burg. I didn't drink anything after that. |

Rode around Primrose with Sarah. Rode up the hills quickish.
Still trying to kick the sniffle before the weekend. Almost got to go to the Drakensburg with Nathan, but he changed his mind :-( |

| Was planning to go for a short spin outside, but the Tour was on TV, so I had a short spin inside. Some stretching and strength afterwards.
I seem to be avoiding the worst of the local sniffle. RHR up though.

A chilly morning to be cycling. I joined 600 people for the 35km race around Walkerville. I started midfield, so had to pass quite a few people, but I didn't mind as I was feeling out my legs at that stage. The legs couldn't keep up with my heart unfortunately, so I felt like I was riding at a low intensity.
Only fell off once - sneaky rock on a grassy single track.
The 60km leaders came past me at a ridiculous speed. I recognised JP in 3rd.
Fun, but would be much better with some better legs |
