And again I have the privilege to ride with heroes!
Cat-i and Adri Ferrari, who just completed the Swazi-Extreme, and Leon vd Westhuizen teamed up with me to ride the Trans-Baviaans 230km single stage MTB ride, not even 5 days after the SwaziX, and with Leon's family just having had a new addition too!
And just when I think the ride is, well, about the ride, along comes Nicolien and shows me how dependent we are on our support crew! And how much effort someone can put into seconding in order to make it all seem effortless.
I am enamored of of you all, great people, and proud to call you friends!

Swazi Extreme...
...was pretty extreme, and judging by the comments from participants of previous Swazi-X events, pretty extreme and long this time.
Nevertheless, again I had the privilege to participate with awesome people - Francois Steyl (Snr), Gerrit van Niekerk, Casper, and seconded by Francois (Jnr). It never ceases to bewilder me what amazing people there are all around us, and these 4 people have all become big in my eyes, people who do more than they need to, who dig deeper than I thought they could, AND all the while keep smiling and cheerful.
I am privileged....
