Little late for me, Normally leave 04h20 and back 06h30. I go up and do the Engen Classic.

 

 

Not familiar with the engen classic route or distance? what is your average speed and where do you leave from?

It starts at the Engen garage on Main Rd Bryanston, near where Main and William Nicol intersect, on Tuesdays to Fridays at 4h55. Different routes of +-42km with Fridays an easier +-38km.

 

There are many riders in season and different paces. As it warms up you will find people riding around 25km/h, although most ride 28km/h+.

 

Cyclelab provides a support vehicle, but all are welcome to participate.

 

Most parts of the route are also popular with other cyclists and so it is pretty safe, although not always from a traffic perspective.

 

Good luck

Two of us ride road through Glenferness, Kyalami and up Bridal Pass to Summit rd 3 to 4 days per week. Start at around 5-30 and do 42km at around 27 kph. Couple of short cuts if pace too high. PM if interested.
