Sniffie Posted July 20, 2012 Share Some sweet singletrack on this one. They even have a rocky koppie! on the 60 km with some short technical bits as well as lekker (shortish) downhills. Well worth a try if you have not done it before. This is really a little gem in the Freestate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
