Can range from 12km - 25km.Route: Fratelli's - top of Emmarentia and back. Can include Albert's Farm and Northcliff hill for thse who hate themselves Pace: Relaxed. 17-20kph... well that's what I'll ride at... the faster peeps are welcome to break away So yeah!

patches Posted August 30, 2011 Author Posted August 30, 2011 How long does the ride take? If I dare ask I went on 2 of those rides. They take about 1hr - 1hr15... if you don't fall by the wayside!
