Adventure Race

Here's a link to my friend Pieter's blog where he posted about our adventure race. There are a few awesome photos!

Magoebaskloof 120km adventure race

Last tour days

This post is about the last few days of my tour.

Fire and wine with friends on Pringle Bay beach.

Franschoek

Route 62:

Seweweekspoort Pass and Gamkapoort Dam:

Almost got bit by a Cape Cobra in this nature reserve. He was huge! Almost stretching right across the road. When I saw the snake it was too late and could not brake so I swerved out, missing his tail with a few centimeters. His head instantly flattened, stood up and stricked my way. Luckily missing my leg. It's scary what potential that situation had to change everything.

Roads End Honesty shop. To bad it didn't have much stock, maybe someone wasn't so honest.

On the way to Oudtshoorn.

Meiringspoort Pass. 

Had an amazing swim and espresso at the waterfall/rock pools!

Adventure continues

The footage processing/editing is taking longer than planned but saw some of the video footage for the first time and it looks amazing!

Looks like the adventure continues, doing an adventure race in Magoebaskloof this weekend. It is a 150km race which consist of mountain biking, trail running/hiking, canoeing, kloofing, caving, orienteering and map navigation . And the best of all we will start Saturday morning and finish Sunday morning (racing through the night). I am definitely taking my GoPro with so you can expect some awesome footage!

Safely home

I am safely home. Busy working through 140 GB of footage for the video. Will update my blog soon!
