Lighthouse 2 Lighthouse 2012 16 Feb 2012
I've said it before and I'll say it again: this is an awesome race; you either love, or hate it. I was hating it a bit at times this past weekend though, but all in all, I came home loving it.
I've done every L2L since 2006, except for...
Recently there has been an uproar in the papers and social media about a massive Toll Plaza to be built on Chapman's Peak. I blindly accepted what the papers and everyone was saying, but didn't stop to look at what exactly was being built and...

Cycling in Cape Town: “Share the Road” 08 Feb 2012

Upcoming: Garden Route 300 03 Feb 2012

After 5yrs of a wonderful friendship, I am about to say goodbye to my old faithful: Giant NRS1.
We've been through so much together - 3 Epics, to begin with - not to mention how many times we've been up to Uniondale and back, across the beach...
Cycling Safely - It Starts At Home 30 Jan 2012
How far would you go, realistically, to make life safer for cyclists on South African roads?
Why this came about
I was recently asked to sign a petition to lobby the Minister of Transport to do "something drastic" to ensure the safety of cyclists on...
Karoo 2 Coast - Backwards 04 Sep 2011
For the past couple of years, a small group of us have cycled from Knysna up to Uniondale as a 'warm up' for Karoo 2 Coast. We figure that if you're gonig to make the pilgrimage all the way from Cape Town to Knysna, you may as well make the...
Table Mountain Cable Card 06 Jun 2011
Yeeha! I've got my card at last. It took more than a month to get my act together, but now I am sorted.At the Plattekllip Charity Challenge earlier this year I won 2 Cable Card vouchers. This card, which can be bought for R490,...
Tulbagh XCM - by MTN and Nissan 20 May 2011
Ultra vs Marathon. 110km vs 75km. If there's a long route option, why on earth would you do the shorter?This is what bugged me when I wanted to enter this particular race. I then got quite upset when I discovered that the racing...
