Welcome to your new addiction. :whistling:

OK, there is ALWAYS a spot open on the night rides. It is not offroad / technical riding, but merely riding next to the tar roads and on gravel roads.

We start at the traffic circle at the top of Koeberg rd (the one at the School) at 18h00 on Tuesday's. Pace is not hectic (last Tuesday was at an avg of just under 22km/h, but the wind was quite strong). Nobody gets left behind.

We go down Koeberg / Adderley on a loop that includes Spes Bona and Occultdale rd (gravel). Some days it is clockwise, some days anti clockwise direction.

We are looking at changin the routes to include Malanshoogte and Tiekiedraai, but time is the limiting factor, as we don't want to get home too late.

I'm going to be doing the Spes Bona/Occultdale loop this evening if anyone wants to join. Pace is going to be VERY easy. Meet at the corner of Koeberg and Mosselbank Rivier (entrance to D'Urbanvale) at 5:30pm.

Busy tomorrow night ?

 

My current fitness level is not up to par yet to what you guys do, so I'm working on it. I'm going out with a friend tonight, but thought if anyone else wanted to join, the more the merrier.

Sounds like a "lekker" ride! I work in Stellenbosch and finish work 5pm, so i think it might be a bit difficult to be in time for your rides, but if i manage to get home earlier, i will definitly join you on your rides!

Looks like I might have to give this one a miss. Work is again interfering with my cycling time.

If I'm not there at 18h00, don't wait for me.
