As most of my supporters are Afrikaans speaking, I am going to do a lot more of my blog in Afrikaans. I will include some English for those who do not understand Afrikaans.
Die voorbereiding vir BB2BB vorder goed. Ek het die afgelope vier weke 'n gemidelde van 306 km per week gedoen. Dit werk uit op ongeveer 16 uur per week in die saal.
My CANSA fund is standing at R100,005 of which R78,650 have been paid. I have identified B & B's at 25 of the 30 places where I plan to sleep over. I am hopeful that I will be able to sort out the five outstanding places shortly. I am also managed to get people to join me for 16 of the 31 days which I will be on the road. I am still working on getting people to join me on the open sections.
Alles loop vlot en is op koers vir die wegspring op 1 April 2016
This was in preparation for the Freedom Challenge Race Across South Africa (FCRASA)which I completed in June 2014 and 2019. Ek is die eerste persoon oor 70 jaar wat RASA voltooi het. Gedurende April 2016 en Maart/April 2024 ry ek om geld in te samel vir CANSA vanaf Beitbrug na Bloubergstrand ter gedagtenis aan Sue, my vrou, wat op 23/09/2022 oorlede is aan die newe effekte van kanker. 2016 afstand was 3,200 en 2024 3,500 kilometer. In June/July 2026 I plan to do the FCRASA again at age 77.
