So after 24 hours travelling we finally reached TO Strand near Durban. We were greeted by African drums and dancing before being asigned to our chalets - I am sharing with 2 others tonight but have a room to myself. Barely had we settled in when it was time to go for a ride on the bikes. We were taken on some local trails and to fuel the bikes up. Back for a quick shower and clean clothes and down to the bar for a few beers and to stock up with water for tomorrows ride.
This evening we were all assembled for the assigning of teams. I am in the Marvellous Maroons - also known as the beginners. We have a great team leader called Ian who seems to have a cracking sense of humour - which he's going to need with us lot in tow!!
Tomorrows ride is a long one and it's raining hard here now so it's bound to be challenging too.
