South Africa Road World cup

09TH OF SEPTEMBER

Finally in South Africa. Country of amazing contrast, beautiful nature and not so smooth roads :D

Finally in South Africa. Country of amazing contrast, beautiful nature and not so smooth roads :D After flying for several hours me and my teammate have enough time to visit some interesting place. We have decided to go to Pretoria to say hello to Oscar. Unfortunately, he was not at home and we have walked through the old town for a while. Pretoria is town of huge contrast between rich and poor. We ve been lucky to find Merlose house that was established in British colonial times. There was beautiful garden with hundred years old trees right opposite to it and we ve spent some time admiring fauna and flora inside. Our manager booked nice hotel in Pietermaritzburg that is about 100+ years old and hosted some rich english families in early 1900. The building was modernised yet it retains its character. Competition starts with time trial on Friday and I have my fingers crossed for a good result hoping that I might snatch overall World cup winner trophy.
