Chapman's Peak Road (near Cape Town), South Africa - Our first recorded international exhibition of our team jersey was spotted in August in of all places, South Africa.  This photo was taken along a portion of the route of the worlds largest organized bike ride, The Cape Town Cycle Tour (formerly know as the Argus ride), in which 35,000 cyclist annually ride 108 kilometers in March.  We were too early to participate.

The picture is of Rich Hansen, Dick Fries and in the middle our guide, Skeezo.   Skeezo is an excellent cyclist, tour guide and active in bringing cycling to the townships of South Africa.

Besides a breathtakingly beautiful and challenging route along the ocean, we were treated with wales actively breaching wales as we cycled along the coast on the 50 miles ride.
