Cape Epic Special

I'm interrupting my Cape Town series for the Cape Epic that's happening right now. We get to see a bit of the action from our balcony and kitchen window. Cyclists from around the world are testing their skills on the rough terrain in this semi-desert. Click on the images to view them larger. It makes a big difference.

Bains Kloof Pass

This time the cyclists won't be returning. They are on their way to Wellington, cycling through the scenic, yet precarious Bains Kloof Pass.
