J bay - PE

The night spent in Jbay was amazing to say the least, I stayed the night at the backpackers, Island Vibes, definitely a hotspot with a great reputation and a vibe to match it! I only rode 15km into Jbay that morning as I misjudged the distance the day before. So I got to spend most of the day in the Island Vibes pub and grub area, meeting people from all parts of the world that flock to Jbay for the waves and ofcourse a good South African experience. Again I experienced kindness when the team at Island Vibes gave me a bunk to sleep in so that I didn't have to pitch my tent in the wind and rain that night! Thanks to everyone at Island Vibes for an epic time! Will most definitely be going back as soon as I can!

The next morning I woke up to ride into PE, and my legs took major strain, so definitely am keen for a rest day soon! I spent the night in PE with the Brennans and Billsons, two absolutely awesome, kind families who fed me with an incredible meal and gave me a nice comfortable bed to sleep in, it really was so kind. I was even lucky enough to be taken out to see PE by Terry Billson, definitely an awesome town with interesting people, thanks Terry for an awesome time! Thanks to everyone over in PE for welcoming me into your home!

The next day was again very tough with my legs just not recovering properly anymore, so it was decided that a stop in Grahamstown for a couple of days is needed soon! I only managed to get 50km out of PE when my legs gave up, however I was again extremely lucky when I was welcomed into the home of the De Villiers where I was given an awesome meal and again a comfortable warm bed! An amazing family with very kind hearts! Thank you!

Today I am aiming to get to Kenton on sea where I will spend a night and then head off to Grahamstown to spend time with my good mate Josh! Looking forward to that!

Again thank you to all the people who have shown me such kindness and care along the way!
