Our first group ride there tomorrow. Can't wait. If it is anything like Rietvlei it will be great.

 

Its nothing like Rietvlei. Its more technical, rocky, and there is a lot more climbing to be done. Still, if you enjoy Rietvlei and can't help thinking that you want more, Thaba is the place to ride.

We (Flippa and I) are planning an early ride (06:30) at Rietvlei. Can change the plan and ride Thaba. Not sure what pace you like, we're not that fast, generally ride Green and throw in a blue detour or 2. Yellow is the "beginners" trail, so you probably don't want to do that. Let me know if you're keen, we can change our plan!

Awesome. I'm not slow, but I'm no race snake, avg about 18km/h. 6:30 is perfect. I dont ming any of the trails, as long as it;s not the green one.

So just confirming, so far it's four of us:

  • W@nna-BE
  • Stretched@Birth
  • Flippa
  • Catatonic_Joe

And we're meeting at the tables outside the shop, right?

All good with me, possibly have The Nerd joining us too. See you all at 06:30.

Charge those lights..official night rides starting 6pm Thursday 18th at Thaba. We intend doing two laps of the 15km Green trail. This is a NON technical trail but you will climb about 300m per lap. It will be our first so we will not be splitting into 'strength groups" We will be riding for two hours. These rides will be Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm. We must leave at 6 sharp and if you are late you will always be able to find us as we come down the fence by Rand Water.Looking forward to some great riding.
