Three weeks into training and I am exhausted and hungry, all the time.
Cycling on the roads of Ghana is still so incredible. We are so lucky to train here, expecially this time of year when the rainy season brings some coolness.
With great expectations we set off to watch the Ghana game on Friday night, on our big screen in the club house. (the club house is our local get-together place with free Friday night beers, probably to keep us happy..but that is another story and probably the reason why cycling on Saturday mornings are so difficult)
And then.. well it ended with sad tears of disappointment and disbelief. The mood of the night was spoiled and cycling on Saturday morning was great. Michelle, my new cycling buddy, and I set a new personal record on our favourite route.
Tomorrow we are going to the big city of Accra for some shopping and to watch Eclipse. I am very excited. In the Accra mall - I am usually one of 5, or the only person, watching a movie.. so at least I will not look ridiculous coming out of the cinema with all the teenagers, as happened in Cape Town.
