The ride from Fish River was quite a heavy one with another tough headwind, but I was epically lucky once again:) just by chance I had the privilege of meeting an inspirational lady by the name of Kim van Kets. Kim completed an epic adventure herself, circumnavigating the entire South Africa by foot, bike and paddling! An awesome achievement and an inspiration! Not only that but Kim has been exceptionally kind to me by organizing me places to stay and have a hot meal the last couple days! I really have been so spoilt with epic food and comfortable beds! Thank you so much to the Moodys and everyone else in Birha for your incredible hospitality and kindness along with a meal to remember! And thank you to Marilyn and the family for an awesome stay in Kidds Beach, I was treated to an awesome curry and very kind company!!
The riding the past couple days has been hard with head winds and sharp hills, however the views have been spectacular! Aswell as awesome people along the way on the road!!
I suffered a couple punctures yesterday and was delighted to find out that my spare tube had a few holes in it and to go with that I lost my puncture repair kit along the way,, so I had to make do with pumping my tyre with air after every uphill and hoping it would last the next downhill, this carried on until the self sealant kicked in, only after about 10 or 15km though, part of the fun I guess:)
I am looking forward to a good day of cycling tomorrow into Chintsa! The weather seams to be turning in my favor, always a good sign!
Thank you to all the people who have been helping to support the cause by donating money to the Alzheimers Association! It is much appreciated and it is going to a good cause!
