Wednesday the 25th. Day 26.


The team is back on the road and everybody seems to be in good spirits. We reached our next stop and finally bid farewell to Bloem. Staying at the Sarie Marais Hotel in Reddersburg it was obvious that yesterday’s team meeting with Puddy had positive results, as the whole crew are pulling extra weight and putting in the extra effort. We are definitely a lot more focussed.

We reached our 500 km mark today and Puddy was feeling the spirit and skated in a pink tutu and girl’s Stix&Stones vest creating awareness for woman and child abuse. This stint created much amusement for passing motorists’ and had the crew in stitches.

Puddy once again pushed hard and completed a total of 28 km’s. He managed a 550m manual and we are starting to wonder if he is close to breaking to record for the longest wheelie.

The weather was fine and the sun was out with the wind pushing from behind. Puddy reached a top speed of 31km/h on a nice downhill with an average of 22km/h for the day.

Looking forward to the rest of the trip.
