Training indoors using Zwift is a great way to improve your fitness, socialise with friends, or even race your bike! Yes, I am zwift racing. Been a bit under the weather and now my first race back. Always an en devour. It went well enough and I managed 7th place. Unfortunately I find Zwift racing all about the racing points. No one attacks or goes solo anymore as Zwift ads value to how you race but only to the results.

It was due to a by chance reading of the website's comments section that I stumbled on a familiar name in the blog listing, Barry van Jaarsveld, whom I had known many moons earlier from the Western Province triathlon scene of the 1980s/1990s. Barry had left SA many years previously to study chiropractic in the USA before settling in the Netherlands, and we had a few mutual friends. When I emailed him to re-connect and ask if he would be interested in being interviewed, he kindly obliged and set the wheels in motion for what turned out to be an almost two year "Where Are They Now" themed series of interviews with former South African triathlon and cycling greats.
