Three Days to the Argus

I had a lovely training ride this morning, with only three days to go before race day. I did a practice run of Boyes Drive, making friends with the old mountainside, and snapped a few shots on my phone while I was up there. On my way home, I stopped off at the Chaeli Campaign Cottage to pick up my cycling jersey and purple feather, which I must creatively attach to myself for the ride. It was great to meet Chaeli's mom, Zelda, who told me that she and Chaeli had met my parents in my hometown while they were there for Chaeli to give the key note address at Rhodes University's Human Rights Week celebrations. It's amazing how small the world can feel sometimes.

Countdown to the Argus

Four days to go to the Cape Argus Cycle Tour. I'm excited. I've done two stunning training rides in Cape Town, and I have one last ride tomorrow, my bike gets serviced on Friday, and then a rest day on Saturday before the big day. I'm looking forward to the Expo, and to picking up my Chaeli Campaign cycling jersey!

If there is anyone out there who is still willing to help me raise money for the charity I'm cycling for, The Chaeli Campaign, please click here to find out how you can do that. I have until the end of the March to reach my target of R2000, so it's not too late.

Wish me luck!

I saw this awesome , but slightly curious poster on a lamp post as I was leaving on my ride this morning.
