  1. Did a loop of most of the farms this weekend. Bloemendal - Hillcrest - Contermans - Hoogekraal - Faircape . In awe of the natural beauty of the land around us, it's a massive privilege for us to be able to share it with the private land owners. A massive shout out to them and the trails builders and the TygerbergMTB club keeping them open for members. Chapeau to you all !!
  2. Great to hear that Cape Nature involved. Tyberberg MTB club also signed up as affected party. Will hate to have to stare at a another quarry in the area. Protect the Renosterbos ! ????????
  3. Will be a very sad day if we won't be able ride there. This is for sure one of the best trails in the country.
  4. Anybody else notice these notices out up at Hoogekraal?
  5. Was actually wondering when this area will become a hotspot.
  6. Could the more mechanically inclined explain this? So for pivots and headsets there is more force applied to the bearing hence we looking for a high quality bearing ie. harder metal? Or does it have to do with the seal? From my unmechanical inclined logic I would have assumed with wheels and BB's the bearings spin at higher speeds compared to headsets and pivot bearings. So meaning less friction = better performance... but we can compromise on bearing quality? Mweh... can't compute

  9. Hi Keith, we are a commute group that leave Blouberg around 06:45 to arrive in town around 07:30. There has been some mugging incidences unfortunately in the Paarden ieland/Woodstock area on the cycling lane. Best be not to cycle on your own. Send me a pm and I will put you in touch with the group so you can try arrange potential people to meet up with.
  10. Electronic Bikes aren't that bad... when you can wheel suck behind them into a gale force South Easter
  11. Hi Guys, seems like Cpt Citi Council putting a lot of emphasis on trying to resolve Citi traffic congestion, they have a platform where general public can comment on concerns and ideas. Would be great if we can get as much comments as possible towards the safety concerns around the mugging hot spots on the cycling lane ( Woodstock - Paarden Island) Word from the inside is that they are actively looking at this portal on concerns and suggestions. If you have second please post your comments at the Citi's public participation portal at the below link. http://www.capetown.gov.za/en/PublicParticipation/Pages/CommentTravelDemandManagementStrategy.aspx
