21 March, day 6 of cycling: Witsand to De Hoop Nature Reserve

Not much news this evening, too tired to write and don't have electricity, using laptop battery!

I am tired..... The road surface is very taxing, lots of corrugation and rocks and gravel. I think I am on the edge of developing a saddle sore, not sure what to do if this happens, but am using chamois cream.

Only did 66,85km today, but had 1007m ascent. Was on the trail for 7h37, but part of this time was spent drinking coffee at the Malagas Hotel, after crossing the Breede River by hand drawn pont / ferry.

Will tell more later, I promise, but for now it is cheers and off to bed!

  1. That sounds amazing. Witsand really is a beautiful place. I would really recommend it to anyone who wants to go there. You can check out this Witsand Accommodation site for some ideas on what to do in the area.
