Appends to race/event: 19.10.2009 - 24.10.2009 // Cape Pioneer Trek, RSA
We are having lots of fun here at the Cape Pioneer Trek!
I have no idea how to call it, but maybe a riding holiday is the best form how to describe it. We ride through beautiful landscape, challenging trails and the best of all it is summer weather.
To do this with Bobby is such great fun. Compared to the other teams we do not have any tactics, or lets just say we ride stupid.
The first day Bobby cramped so hard in the last 40kms. I have never seen somebody cramping so hard at such slow speed! Well now he rides with two water bottles and sport drink as well. Luckily me, so now I can finish my own water bottle.
Yesterday we were going well until the last monster pass. But somehow one of us had a double flat tire left and right mid way up. Man we were going walking speed only...
But today on day three we were killing it!
We finished second in a real exciting road style finish. We played perfect tactics or lets say team Squirt did not think so, on the last 10 asphalt kilometers with strong head wind.
