Some time ago my dad called me about selling an old coin. He called it a 'Kruger Pound' but it turned out to be even older and is in fact called a 'Burger Pond'. I tried to help but really wished to understand why now after so many years of locking it in a safe. Turns out he was diagnosed with cancer and needed money for treatment.
You may wonder why I start the story here. It's really simple, much happened over the past 18 months since that first phone call. The details are not that relevant. What is relevant is that this weekend, starting today, I am riding from Cape Town and my brother from Nelspruit to go see my dad, now near Ladybrand.
I am returning his coin.
This will be my first long distance solo ride on the new bike. I will write and post pictures along the way.
