Today we lost one of the most influential South Africans of our time; #JohhnyClegg’s music united a nation when we needed it most. Songs from his many soundtracks fill my heart with such fond memories and his lyrics have woven themselves into the tapestry of my life. Hamba gahle Johnny. abcnews.go.com Johnny Clegg, a South African musician who performed in defiance of racial barriers imposed under the country's apartheid system decades ago and celebrated its new democracy under Nelson Mandela, died Tuesday after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 66. Clegg's multi-racial bands during South Africa's white minority rule attracted an international following. He crafted hits inspired by Zulu and township harmonies, as well as folk music and other influences.
Slowly on the mend and back on the bike after 6 months. What a beaut of a day to be out and about in SW London right in the heart of the #WimbledonTennis buzz!
So grateful for all the opportunities I’ve had over the past few years. Spending time in my beloved Africa has been the most precious of all and I can’t wait to get my feet back onto its red rich soil.

In memory of Haz - gone too soon and forever in the wild memories of those who had the pleasure of spending time with him. The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience. -- Eleanor Roosevelt
