Wed 28th- George

Another 96km down and we are half way (yellow ribbon on map depicts distance completed so far). It has been a day of challenging passes such as Keimanns and others! Paul:"So this is what it means to 'be on one's last legs!'".
Dave broke his speed record by managing 69km/hr.
Paul's spoke broke and so both Paul and Glenda's bikes needed repairs along the way.
Many many thanks to our hosts over the last few nights who have ensured that we are well rested and fed and who have treated us so extremely well. Dave and Colleen of Fountain Vineyard church, Helen Veitch (Jeffry's Bay), Sandy and Trevor Davis (Knysna), and Sandy and Richard Moir (George). A huge thank you to Rose for the delicious crunchies and chocolate brownies which continue to provide much needed energy at each comfort break!
