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 :-)
