Sun 12 Sep 2010 - REST

Week 3 will be a "rest week", so it will be a bit easier than week 1 and 2. The REAL hard work is lurking...

I will be riding with a group of friends from Haenertsburg to Bulembu (Magoebaskloof to Swaziland) in week 4. This is a bit difficult to marry the training programme and the touring, but so be it. At least I will get plenty TITS and many LSD's
