After having been to the Coffee shop and seen the Museum, it was time to head out on the long solitary road again for Willomore which was the target for the day.

I remember doing this same road a few years earlier also on a bike trip and the sheer beauty of it blew me away. Last time I was riding from Willowmore to Steytlerville and we did so early in the morning with the sun rising so the colours were incredible. I could have made a whole book just on that ride but as usual never enough time to stop and take the pictures.

This time it was to be a sunset and riding into the sun. On all these roads you are always riding between two distant mountain ranges on both sides of you, which means you are in a massive valley which adds to the scenery.

Steytlerville new housing - also impressive - some parts are working well

All looking very new and nice with their green Solar heating

A last look back at Steytlerville village

Continuous mountains down tboth sides

One plonker fortunate enough to be doing this all in the middle!

The colours of the grasses were very pretty in the sun now beginning to set

Odd farm house along the way

Good old African thorn bush
