Thanks for putting together a great day blazes.
Just knew it was going to be a great day from the feeling I got when I was at the N14 / R511 enjoying some good Sasol coffee and a muffin and this whole posse of five bikes, headed by Lourens and Mrs kitted in nifty orange, the mellow yellow rainsuited Munros, and the schweet F800 with Malibu atop come over the rise.
Looked awesome.
From there it got better. Lekka dirty wiggle-waggle to cullinan. I soon realized Ryperd was more competant a sweeper than I would ever be, handed over to him, and joined the mid-pack for most of the ride.
After Cullinan headed off, mostly in the wrong direction since my big GPS is bust, to the Solstice Festival of Micro Brewers for a Pickled Pig Porter with Malgat & Mrs and a long and involved chat with a charming lady who has invented a device to allow ladies to pee while standing that she says is a must for lady riders.
I promised her I would create a thread here on the forum and I always do what I am told.
Found a pub to watch the rugby. Talked bikes and saw no rugby worth watching and got home just after dark after a really good day in the saddle.
Thanks again Blazes, and Groot Marico brace y'self and get the mampoer stills fired up - the dogs are coming to town.
