Hi All

 

What about a MTB night ride group (Tuesdays and Thursdays) 18h30 - 20h00 (+-40km)===== (or 18h45 to 20h30ísh ????)

 

Keep it on the smooth gravel and not technical.

 

Like:

1) Go out from D'Ville, Bonne Mella, adderley, Malans hoogte, Tiekie draai back to D'ville

2) B'larey / Railway lines / Eenzaamheid / left to 4 way stop / phisantekraal back to D'Ville

3) Point 2 backwards

4) B'larey / Railway lines / Eenzaamheid / back B'Larey

5) B'Larey / Railway lines / Tygerberg ZOO / D'Ville

 

About a 23-25km/h on the mtb's with lights

Now you're talking. :clap:

Can't do the CWC Wednesday rides, will surely join you on a few (as soon as I return from my self imposed cycling ban) :D

 

What did you "use" to deserve this ban of yours?

Beers

Burgers

or Boerewors rolls? :D

Tankman, I normaly take about a month off after the Argus to let the body recouperate and also to placate the "Guvment". Back in full swing towards end of April.

also remember, its not my group !!! the group should ride with or without me.

 

Its just a normal MTB group riding tuesdays and thursdays

 

I would say that the min riders per ride (seeing that it is dark) should be 6 or more.

 

And the group should decide at the start (based on the wind direction etc) what route to do.

Sounds fine to me. As long as we can have a good attendance at each and every ride. The CWC Wednesday rides are hugely popular, can't see why this one cannot be also.

Tienie, I think we need to see the interest and determine the best meeting point.

 

Andrag or Maybe at the 711 Friendly Store just before the D'Ville / Phisantekraal robot (on Fairtress Rd?)

Than peaople can also park on the parking bay.

 

Not sure, but we need to atart at one central place, otherwize everything gets confused

 

Both got a nice yellow shoulder for going out or coming back

 

The Bottlarey exit takes you inmeadiately onto the railway jeep track, towards eenzaamheid, all wide and save gravel road , to the top of Grand Prix Hill.

 

From there, we can turn back Bottlary rd, or even go left (tar rd with the yellow line)towards the 4way (fruit sellers) stop, and back in Durbanville, also big yellow lines.
