We had a lazy start to the day because we had a short 200km run to San Francisco and wanted to enjoy the surroundings of Pebble beach before heading off. We started the morning with a walk along the golf course and beach followed by an awesome breakfast and mid morning snooze and eventually got out of the hotel at 12pm.

Days ride

Our days rideā€¦

The ride to San Francisco was fast, cool and beautiful until we hit the traffic in the city which is manic and was backed up for about 10km on route to the golden gate bridge and took us over an hour to get to the viewpoint for that iconic San Francisco photo!! We eventually checked into our hotel where we will be spending the next 2 nights to soak in and enjoy the city a little.

Be a sport Many of us have the means and wherewithal to undertake the dreams we want but elect to choose otherwise, many however, do not and that is the purpose of this plea. Afrika Tikkun (http://afrikatikkun.org// ) is a South African non governmental, non profit charity organisation run by the Lubner family that in essence does just that; re-provide the possibility to dream and to create the possibility of turning those dreams into a reality.

Unlike many pleas of this nature, I am not looking for any kind of sponsorship for my trip, but I am looking for your donation, regardless of its size to Afrika Tikkun. Please pledge generously as this is a fantastic cause that will assist them to provide food, care, education, health and social services to those that are desperately in need.
