Mass mtb gathering for hubbers

[RockCoach]

 

 

Always wondered how to get to the koppies. Isn't the top of Emmerentia is closed off?

 

You can only get to it from Alberts side unless you port your bike up the rocks. I will show you the next time you join me for a Spruit ride.

 

It is more technical than anything I remember at Thaba. Bring some of those light pads with wings...

I live on MK east but I haven't riden MK west for a very long time. There were far too many muggings at one stage so we stopped riding there. I assume it's safe now?

Yeah. There were apparently some incidents and we have only just started riding it again after a couple of years. It is all burnt open and clear now. We always go in groups of experienced riders who don't hang about.

Hi guys,

 

Had some feedback regarding KK. Yes, it is being used for the Silverstar. However, he says we can still use it because they are doing it against the flow of normal cycling and coming through the main route. So we'll have to do the trail the other way around.

 

Is it still worth it? What do you guys think? Postpone it for another time?

 

The trails might be jam packed then...

All I want to know is where are we riding this Saturday?

Fook me!! To do that trail the other way round will be murder and I agree that it will suck with all those racists on the track. Lets do Thaba then. Im also looking to ride EARLY this sat, I have to be at school at 12 so I want to ride fro 7 ish so I'm home by 10....

I had to walk my bike out of KK on saturday after a debilitating impact puncture...and that was the normal way around - none of the really difficult sections and it was really tough...

[Joe_Cogs]

I've only ridden a bike backwards once... and that wasn't fun. So, Thaba it is

We once missed that badly marked right turn near that kraal thing where you can see the houses infront of you. We went straight and past that little brige, we followed what looked like a trail, when it ended we were ontop of that huge koppie with that rocky outcrop. What a freakin mission to get out of that mess.
