Roadblock – Reroute!

Roadblock ⛔️🚳 👉 Reroute 😁!

👉 Roadblock ⛔️🚳 105 km Gravel training ride planned for Saturday, 18 July 2020 🚴‍♀️! Enters Life! Madam Roza gets sick on Friday night 🐶😢! The Love Of My Life doesn’t hold anything down from 10 pm 🐶🤮🙈! We run up-and-down 🐶🤮🏃‍♀️! Bedroom-to-Garden-to-Bedroom! This continues throughout the night 🌚😥🤭! At 4 am, Saturday morning I stand in my kitchen, exhausted, making coffee ☕️, and looking at my bike gear all neatly set out for my ride. Bike 🚲 on it’s stand, gleaming, ready to roll! Deep down I know, I’m not clocking 105 km today 😢! I text my riding buddies, and the event organizer, cancel, and feel like shit 💩😬! But, 30 kg of pure unconditional love needs caring 🐶♥️! By 3 pm on Saturday afternoon, I’ve managed to stabilize Madam Roza 🙂! She holds down half a banana 🍌 and water. By Sunday morning all’s still good 🐶, and she’s asking for food 😅🥳! She eats 3 small meals on the hour, and drinks lots of water 💦, still good 🤩! Breathe 😅😁! Overjoyed 💃🥳!

👉 Reroute 😁! By mid-morning I feel comfortable to pop out for a ride 🚴‍♀️💃🥳! Instead of local, I zoom off to Hazeldean Valley Trails 🚗💨💨!

I’ve only ever raced on the “Cow-House” trails, so the solo leisure ride was super cool 🚴‍♀️😎! No rush or noise! Just ”The Black Stallion” and me on the Moo Trails 🐮🐄🐂🚴‍♀️🤩!

⭐️ Trail Options 👉 🖤 36 km ❤️ 30 km 🧡 25 km 💙 20 km 💚 16 km 💛 11 km 🌸 5 km ⭐️

I started out following the green 💚 trail, and realised it was too short, then opted to zip down the red ❤️ trail, came short of 30 km, and popped onto the pink 🌸 trail to clock ⏰ over 30 km at least 😁!

Think I made a blaps 🤣! My 🌸 was not 5 km 🚴‍♀️🙃🙄 and my ❤️ not full 30 km 😳🤭🤷‍♀️😃! 💡Started on 💚 and switched ❤️🤔! Maybe 🙂👻?💡

Fabulous 5⭐️ trail experience! Trails cut clean! Routes marked clearly with markers. I was lucky to meet the cows 🐮🐄🐂 coming home 😁! Soo pretty 🐄🐂🤩! The landscape, a mix of bushveld trees and grassland. In winter, a different kind of beauty 📸😍! Definitely popping into Hazeldean Valley Trails more often from now on 🤩!

Few pics for your enjoyment 📸😁!
