A splendid gallery, Bob. The images of the leafy glades & rolling fields
clearly show why cycle tours (& hiking) are so popular. The image which
stood out the most for me was the Petanque players probably because my
standard dress is like the guys wearing shorts. Some years ago there was
still a large continental population in Phalaborwa (Italians & Portuguese in
building/construction & Greeks in cafès). They use to play Petanque on a
redundant sand tennis court. Only a few Greeks remain now.
On the hydration question, "back pack" systems are widely used in all types
of endurance disciplines here, especially when water points are
unpredictable. However, the fitter people manage with much less water than
the herd. GPS/heart monitor systems are much in evidence too. I even see
runners with i-Pads loaded with apps which log their whole route on
something like Google Earth.
