45 to 5 degrees


This is a picture of me and Charl after we finished the grueling "to Hell and Back" Mountain Bike Race. This two day race starts close to the Cango Caves (near Oudtshoorn) and finishes in the Gamkakloof (also known as the Hell). The route consists of many steep climbs and treacherous downhills for 120km. During the race, we experiences temperatures ranging from 5 degrees to 45 degree. It was one of the most difficult things that I have done in my life, but the sense of achievement when I crossed the finishing line was indescribable.
