Another day another sunrise

Great rides last weekend to the Broodblik and back on Saturday and Monument single track on Sunday. Legs were pretty heavy after spending 10 days overseas in Spain and England with plenty of over eating and drinking. Nice sunrises with the winter chill knocking at the door.

RIP Barry

With deep regret, Barry Mccallum passed away last week. Reading the 50 odd pages on the www.hubsa.co.za you realize what a impact he had on so many people's lives in the cycling community. I will miss my interactions with him on Twitter and the odd visit to Procycles on a Saturday where his sense of humor always cracked me up. 

I found found a post from my Blog in 2012 where I did a ride that Barry organized in the mine dumps:

I will hopefully be able to attend his funeral and join the memorial ride this Sunday. We will miss you Barry. 
Nice turn out riding from Procycles to Grapes
