The nerves have set in, it is raining here in Durban and 11 deg, Kelly called me earlier today "just make sure you bring lots of warm clothes, arm warmers, leg warmers and long fingered gloves, we are expecting average temperatures of 13-15deg". Now for a seasoned fair weather Freddie Durban rider this is the worst thing I could have heard today! The last minute rush to finish up any problems at work took their toll on me, I ran out later than expected and really only got back into thinking about riding once I had hit my second Windhoek at dinner tonight.
Having said this I am sad to be leaving my family for a week but, excited to be taking on this adventure in the Cape. I said my farewells to all at work, I am packed and ready to jump on the plane in the morning. We are fetching Sips' on the way to the airport and should hit the mother city early afternoon.
I am chuffed with the support received at work in the last couple of days, many people have donated funds before pay day which goes to show you how good an event like this can be, I am excited to see the funds flowing in once everyone gets paid on Monday hint hint!
