Cape Argus Cycle Tour
Posted on April 24th, 2011 in Recreation & Sports | No Comments »
Well, in 2011 the Cape Argus cycle tour, only five days, and whether you attend or not, you never learned to ride or you are involved in unholy alliance with your bike, it will affect your life. There will be a mass closure of the road for most of the day and as you can see, early in the morning driving will become a nightmare over the next few days as roads undertaken by the packets of men with shaved legs and a woman with hips, which could kick Boeing. Ironically, despite all the inconvenience you will never find Cape Town residents that complain about the inconvenience and sincerely upset. For most of the residents of Cape Town for a Cape Argus, as a car guard at a car that was not paid. If you find an angry Cape Townian you can be sure that they are tourists or only recently moved to Cape Town from Johannesburg.
Argus Cycle Tour has been around for over thirty years, which explains the love of Cape Town from this event. You can talk to almost everyone in Cape Town and they will know who made the Argus, if they have not done it yourself. History records the tour lay with those who have spent years watching it and thought: “I can do it, you sit down most of the time anyway.” I was one of them all I will say that it was the worst experience of my life.
Do not get me wrong, the Argus cycle tour of the beautiful events, fun-filled day of camaraderie, failures and memories. If you train! I do not actually half an hour in the race I’m far done any previous training I would have tried. Torture would be preferable. I have no doubt that during the day there were several instances that were supposed to create happy memories, I just do not remember them, they do not show through the pain and humiliation that will remain forever etched in my brain when his legs cramped so bad that I could not pedal, or even remove my feet from the pedals. I just rolled to a painful stop and fell. Official traffic stopped behind me, and when they had finished wiping away tears of laughter from their eyes, they helped me back up.
The most affected roads will be implemented through Noordhoek and Hout Bay, Chapmans Peak Drive Noordhoek Rd M6 and Princess Rd, will be closed from Saturday 6 pm to 4:30 pm Sunday. The area around the Green Point stadium will be affected for most of the week. Western Boulevard, Beach Road for a new transport Circle (city bound carriageway and Sea Point bound carriageway) will be closed from noon Saturday until 6:30 pm on Sunday. The best route to and from the city of the southern suburbs will be the main road, and Heerengracht-m and Duke Boulevard will be closed, as will be N2 out of town. M3 south will be closed for most of the morning last stretch will reopen at around noon. This will be a road that will affect the southern suburbs of the majority.
From the bottom of Suikerbosie coastal road, which extends Bantry Bay, Camps Bay and Clifton will be closed from just after 6:00 am Sunday, when the race leaders start coming through until just after 5:00 pm when bullets began limping back way.
