An Experience I'll Never Forget

Cape Town
The Argus is the largest public cycle ride in the world. 40,000 riders turn out from around the globe to ride the difficult 109km race.
It's a stunning ride around the table mountain range.
I participated in April of 2006 and learned a few very valuable lessons:
1) Wear sunblock
2) Make sure you have a big, heavily padded seat
3) Make sure you have music with you and a FULLY CHANGED battery
4) Wear a water back-pack ...you'll need it
5) Cary 6 packs of "Goo" with you
Although the ride took me 5 hours and 15 minutes and I couldn't walk for a week, it was well worth the experience and it's something I don't think I'll ever forget.
