Green Bean Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Always! And I will always make sure to bring new riders up to speed with fitness and skills. More and more people are turning to cycling and MTB specifically as a safe and fun form of excersise. However, many dont pull through due to incorrect setups or by bring scared of riding or by simply having a bad ride on their first trip out. Everybody should be able to enjoy these rides. Nobody is ever too slow or too unfit to do these. The rides will always be free of charge and all I ask is that you show up with a positive attitude. A frown and a moan or the feelin that this is work means you aren't having fun. I am also working out the details around a couples ride and training day where couples wanting to ride together are given a workshop on how to look beyond the issues of riding together and instead on how to enjoy it. It really does help to bring people closer together. More will be added and revealed soon. Good stuff! I can't relate to the couple stuff but if they wanna be closer then great. I am for now happy looking at brown tanned defined bodies with no faces! =Bones= 1

I'm still debating whether tomorrow is a relaxed Spruit day, or if I should hose off the DH bike and hit the Pretoria nationals course
Stiglitz86 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 @deltaalphamike - Thats the botanical Gardens next to where they had the 702 walk the talk near cresta? @ madscot - You riding from there too?

I'm still debating whether tomorrow is a relaxed Spruit day, or if I should hose off the DH bike and hit the Pretoria nationals course Well it is the way I always ride. From my house up to the gardens then down to fratellis and up to republic then back to emmerentia and up north cliff hill / Alberts farm
DeltaAlphaMike Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 @deltaalphamike - Thats the botanical Gardens next to where they had the 702 walk the talk near cresta? The parking lot for the botanical gardens is on olifants road. That if the road that goes over the dam wall at emmerentia dam. The 702 walk the talk (always screws up resident access not that I am complaining) started from marks park which is next door to the gardens
