Another eventful ride on the Braamfontein Spruit. Steve was going well until about 35km where he hit the wall in no uncertain terms. He was battling to walk up William Nicol while I was pushing both bikes. So eventually I went ahead and picked him up by car afterwards...

Evening ride down the Braamfontein Spruit with Joseph. Quite a mud bath! Joseph had a slow puncture from the start and we thought we could pump it up every 5km or so and left the spare tubes and puncture repair kit at home. Needless to say, after 15km, the slow flat got faster and Joseph eventually had to call for a lift home once he was stopping every 500m to inflate his tyres...

Went to O training at Wits but the turnout was pretty poor (and it got cold pretty early on). So Garry, Jeremy, Dan and I chatted about course-planning for a while.

Melrose, 2 laps in the rain. Felt harder today for some reason...

Just noticed I got exactly the same time (to the second) as my ride on the same route on 30 April :-)
