Pro Deo - Day 3

We have just booked into the most stunning guest house in Nottingham Road, but before we got here some very hard work on the bicycle needed to be done.  The first stop, after leaving ATKV Drakensville, this morning was in Winterton for coffee.  Shortly after Escourt the climbing started with hills like Warthog and Griffin really hurting the tired legs.  At the top of Griffin’s hill we tested our mountain biking skills on some tricky dirt road (as they were working on the road), resulting in one flat tyre and two destroyed tyre’s.  After the repairs we enjoyed a lovely long downhill into Mooiriver for lunch.
After a long climb out of Mooirivier we completed the day with a fast undulating section to Nottingham Road. Tomorrow we will see the sea for the first time on the section from Nottingham Road to Toti.
