    Stefan Garlicki training in Paarl the week before the race. Getting things done... race organiser, speed trap winner & 3rd overall, not your average weekend. Well done Sir!


    Hope to see all the locals at Contermanskloof next weekend, bring loads of water, sunblock & anything that casts a shadow... it's gonna be a scorcher!
