tuesday’s child doing once off gig
65km and going strong…
I have just got back from a fantastic 65km cycle, and do you know how I feel? GREAT!
The cycle tour is in exactly 30 days, and this year I really am putting in the time training (mostly on my indoor trainer). However, getting out today on the road showed that the indoor training is really making a huge difference.
Even though the South-easter was howling, it didn’t really bother me. So, I am looking forward to a great race (remember that this time last year I was in bed after back surgery).
I am just about ready for the 109km race, and I think that I should even be able to tackle Boyes Drive!
By the way, for our annual fund-raiser (of which the cycle tour is our main event), watch this space for a surprise announcement…
Cycle Tour – Chappies is open!
Good news, the decision regarding Chapman’s Peak being open for the Argus Cycle Tour has finally been made. Yes, it will be open.
According to the cycle tour website:
Following high level meetings, we are very pleased to announce that Chapman’s Peak will be open on Race Day Sunday. We are comfortable that the safety of cyclists, which is clearly our primary concern, will not be compromised and are delighted that this iconic part of the route will be enjoyed again this year.
I am so glad they managed to sort this out. The alternative route (the dreaded Ou Kaapse Weg) is a much tougher and longer route. So we will be cycling through Hout Bay after all. I just hope that no rocks fall on my head :-)
