Planning an SA attempt this Saturday, departing 7am ferry and wondering if a 5th person wants to join the run - possibly a new candidate for the Hall of Fame or someone wanting to relive their finest hour As most will know the challenge is 2hours 45 mins at 20mph average on the coastal circuit which is 'lumpy' and 'interesting'.
Reason I say 5th person is with current guidelines any more would be inappropriate.
The normal return is 11.05am but we have booked the 12.30 in case we miss the boat and the later ones get fully booked. So far we have 4 tickets (you have to book the ferry in advance now), myself, Jan, Andy G and my daughter Laura. Plan is to start and finish as a team and I really appreciate Jan and Andy's support with the pacing strategy, ride at a pace fast enough to complete the challenge but not going for the segment type eyeballs out approach, and hopefully get Laura inducted as first female into the most Glorious Hall of Fame.  

 
 
 

Yip, was like a cyclist Mecca today, felt a bit sorry for any non cycling customers !

the suspense …...

you've just increased the suspense …. you're such a tease
 

the suspense …...

This popped up in my iphone memories today from a ride over the rest and be thankful 3 years ago - thought a few of you may like to see.

Gone but not forgotten!
 

Too easy, next time I should be more obscure.

top of stone throw. I know I should go there but on the wine as it’s my birthday. Will have another excuse tomorrow 

No words required. Received this magnificent photo today from an SA vet who quite understandably would love to become a DA vet 🤣

Thanks Jan, you inspired me to go out tonight for an unplanned ride
 

Eh Alan, the idea is that you need to win the previous round to post the photo for the next round Nice photos though

I am going to fess up. I rode by this spot last night with the intention of taking a photo as I had a good idea where it was. However just before I got there I met Jamie Thompson and we were blethering, from different sides of the road of course, and we passed to spot. Long story short, I stuck bike in car last night and took this picture on my way to work this morning. So I would be happy for you to take the glory and post the next picture !

I thought it was here but someone has stolen the bridge...

Well done Stuart !

So here is the next one - a bit trickier perhaps but I reckon a good few will know it, as for Alan and his cryptic 395573 number - is this an OS map reference or the cost of his Zwift set up ?
