Tokai - Up to the mast!

I have never been to the mast...until yesterday! I set out to Tokai in explore mode and found myself at the sign pointing in the direction of the mast. Well, challenge accepted!

Thank goodness for pro pedal!!

Fantastic views kept me cranking...

Rapid elevation gain..a bit easier on tar

The mast looming in the distance

And then without any ceremony - there it was. Just a tower behind barbed wire. I hiked my bike up a rocky footpath, but soon decided to leave it in the fynbos while I did some rock hopping, chasing after more grand views.

Looking down on Chapmans Peak Drive and Long Beach 

Bombing down was EPIC and the most fun I've had in Tokai recently.

Meanwhile, Reto was helping Duran build at the Fishhoek jumps in preparation for the "pump track challenge" - getting ready for the crowds to descend onto Sun Valley...which they certainly did on the Valley of the Sun - Val Di Sole - for the 2nd UCI World Cup DH race which saw another double Atherton victory!
