Active Sunglasses, whether you never learned to ride or you're involved in an unholy union with your bike,
Baseball Hats, it is going to affect your life. There will be massive road closures for most of the day and as you may have noticed early morning driving will become a nightmare over the next few days as the roads are taken over by packs of men with shaved legs and woman with thighs that could kick start Boeings. Oddly despite all this inconvenience you'll never find a Cape Town resident that complains about the inconvenience and is genuinely upset. For the most part Cape Town residents get behind the Cape Argus like a car guard behind a car that hasn't paid. If you find an angry Cape Townian you can be sure they are tourists or have only recently moved to Cape Town from Johannesburg.
The Argus cycle Tour has been in existence for over thirty years which explains Cape Town's love affair with the event. You can speak to almost everyone in Cape Town and they will know someone who has done the Argus if they haven't done it themselves. The history records of the tour are littered with those that spent years watching it and thought,

Don't get me wrong, the Argus cycle tour is a lovely event, a fun filled day of camaraderie, mishaps and memories. If you train! I didn't,

Torture would've been preferable. I don't doubt that throughout the day there were some instances that should have formed happy memories, I just can't remember them,
Famous Hats, they've been blanked out by the feeling of pain and humiliation that will forever be seared into my brain when my legs cramped up so badly that I couldn't pedal or even remove my legs from the pedals. I just rolled to a painful stop and fell over. A traffic official had stopped behind me and when they had finished wiping the tears of laughter from their eyes they helped me back up.
