Certain members of my family are cycling fanatics - and so they've been glued to the TV whenever there has been news of the Absa Cape Epic 2011, completed yesterday. My brother and his girlfriend recently joined the other onlookers at the start of the great Cape Epic, taking in the excitement, and cheering on the riders. They took some fabulous pics - see The Pocket Rambler - and in doing so prompted me, this weekend when my little girls were out riding their bikes, to document the event;

| "On your marks, get set, go...!!" |
 |
| "E P, with all her protective gear, gets off to a good start..." |
 |
| "We see only the back of her as she speeds around the corner, frantically pinging her bell as she goes..." |
 |
| "J P, the second contestant, decided to change her bike at the start! There must have been something wrong with the other bike. She's a little behind but here she comes, with a look of determination etched onto her young face. She takes the turn, she wobbles, will she fall...?" |

| "Yaaaay! She rights herself and heads off for the end of the course. A successful day in this epic race!" |
Wow! thats a seriously tough course, lucky Jem had the skills to cruise through that technical section otherwise they would of lost valuable time to the other contenders.
