PhilipV Posted March 12, 2012 Share HiI'n brining a group of people to Wellington on Saturday 17th. What time does the trails open, and what time do you reckon we should start riding to beat the heat. We plan on doing all 3loops. I was thinking 7 or 7h30.Is there an honesty box for us for our trail permits? Or will the office coffee shop be open yet?.Anyhoo... Can't wait!

The Search Posted March 12, 2012 Share You should start at 6am. See Saturdays is suppose to be 25 degrees max. Sunday will be hot. You can pay Dan @ Welvanpas afterwards. It is Harvest festival in Wellington this coming weekend. Doollhof, Dunstone, Nabygelegen and Leliefontein is all in close range if wine is youre thing. Enjoy youre ride. If you take pics load them here or on our facebook site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted March 13, 2012 Share Thats what I like about this place. Its always improving and changing.On grape escape I was thinking of porting across the river and when I got there, there was a bridge. I just wish there could be some more shade out there.

The Search Posted March 17, 2012 Share Glad you enjoyed it. You had great weather today. Just need a little bit of rain to get rid of the dust and make the track grippy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 19, 2012 Share Thanks for calling that ride Philip. It was a great loop ... even though I came late and rode with the Blue route group it was a great ride with a couple of nice fast section where you can very easily pick up too much speed (A good thing). One of the things I was reminded of very quickly on the route though was that you can not brake when in the air .... The Search: I do however believe that the route has changed a fair bit with lots of ST sections being cut out. Is this true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLuvsMtb Posted March 19, 2012 Share Hairy, Phillip, Nobody. Was a great ride on Saturday. I finally got that rebound dialed in properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 19, 2012 Share I really liked that the climbing on the Blue Route is rather "passive" with nice recovery sections between the little climbs. Makes for a fun ride, especially for those who are a little "less fit" or if you are on a SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
