What a sick event and route @the_gallows__ 🤩
2nd for me 🥈 and a nice dice with a strong @danloubser 🤝🏻
Knowing where the finish line was would have been nice though😅 Got caught off guard when I got attacked as I was under the impression we still had 5km until the top which left me a bit unsatisfied that I didn’t completely empty the tank ⛽️
The form is looking good and I’m exciting for @unboundgravel 200 at the end of the month!

The Gallows was the first cycling race I ever shot. One year later, with all that’s happened in between, it’s still my favourite of the lot.
This is the story of what happened at the front. It finished the same, with the incredible @danloubser defending his title, but this time with some shoulder-to-shoulder company from @daniel.vanderwalt right until the finish.
@rogansmart kept things smooth and simple, rounding out the podium. Dave George gave me a few glaring looks en route, but slowly warmed up to me. And if luck had been a little kinder, I’m convinced @_loodgoosen_ would’ve been right there in the fight too.
@jerotz and @carldavidjones , you and your team have something special going. Thank you for letting us be a part of it.
Think I’m going to have to ride this thing next year.
The last 2 weeks- Seven places visited with 54hrs on a plane and 28hrs in an airport😅 🏃🏻♂️
Looking forward now to building up form again back in 🇿🇦 before the next few races!
Feels like being back at a World Cup again at the @seaotterclassic ; fast start and lots of fighting for position 🥵
Got involved in a crash in lap 1/3 and spent some matches trying to catch up time. Luckily got some good wheels to work with on the last lap but I was already a bit spent😵💫
12th for me out of the wild cards.
Still learning a lot from this gravel scene and I’m excited for even more gravel events this year.
Prep starts again now for a big one in May 👀
