I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
It's a challenge against yourself, your bike, your legs and Leon Evans God created obsticals and I am made to fight uphill battles. My wife said I need to learn to be more patient so I entered a team event. I needed something to talk about when I am old, if I survive !
