Keurboom Strand – Storms River Village - 58 km
Just beyond Keurboom Strand was Storms River, and the road leading
there was a treat, winding through the stunning Tsitsikamma National
Park. The area offered an exciting array of adventure activities,
ranging from bridge swings to tubing and even five-day hiking trails
for the most adventurous souls.
The weather was perfect for riding, with the sun shining down and a
gentle breeze pushing us forward. Along the way, we ran into my
good friend Nico, who had driven from Knysna to meet us. Being an
experienced cyclist, he came prepared, bringing with him a refreshing
bottle of Coke and some delicious hot cross buns. Thank you, Doc!
We chatted for a while, catching up on each other's lives and sharing
a few laughs before continuing our journey towards Storms River
Village. Rejuvenated by Nico's refreshments, we pressed on towards
Storms River, with the stunning scenery heightening the excitement
of the ride.
Arriving at the Backpackers, our camping spot for the night, we were
greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Lush green gardens
surrounded the site, and the friendly hosts made us feel right at
home.
It was the perfect end to an exhilarating day of adventure and
cycling.
