Colchester
We had a good meal at the Zuurberg Inn last night. Maybe slightly too good because we felt short on fizz this morning. We made full use of the great breakfast on offer and waddled out replete some time after ten o'clock.
The run down to the R342 was mostly very relaxed and effortless. Just like yesterday, there was very little traffic - only four vehicles of which three were encountered in the last kilometer to the R342. Then it was a busy fourteen kilometers on the main road to Port Elizabeth before we turned back onto the gravel R335 that ran us down to Colchester.
Addo town itself was as busy and congested as a tiny country town can be but we needed to stop to pick up some bananas for lunch and some drinks to see us through the last thirty kilometers.

We arrived at our pick up spot in Colchester just as Carel's VW Microbus. The short ride back to Port Elizabeth passed in a blur of conversation as we caught up with news from each other.
The big question was - when and where to next ?
Today's ride: 55 km (34 miles)
Total: 2,195 km (1,363 miles)
