I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
It was a challenge to see if we could finish it, then it became a challenge to see if we could ride faster. Now we are back to complete number 5 and ride as Masters, all 5 epics with the same partner.
Best Results:
Going from a weekend warrior to completing in 5 Cape Epics. Specifically Day 8 Cape Epic 2006 and meeting Bart Brenjens and Christoph Sauser
