Now only if i knew exactly where this is, I often ride Rhodes to Tafelberg road but i'm still unfamiliar with the different trails & various routes. Which group is doing this anytime soon again as I would like to join time, starting & ending off point dependant. Thanks.

Hey milky we have a group ride every Tuesday from Rhodes mem in the eve, feel free to join. we also ride other evenings as well. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/126064-rhodes-memorial-weekly-ride-tuesday-eve-5pm-v20/

Ok i had a better look now with zoom (lol) will give it a go with my crew sometime over the weekend again.

 

Easiest way, change the Strava map into satellite mode! And there you go!!

Yo Meezo ... forgot to take pics, but we had to clear Dicks drop again this morning ... someone had spent a good bit of time blocking off the trail again.

Send me a pic and I'll try reasoning it on their behalf

 

ED: What I can make out from the Strava info is that the avg grade is quite steep.. wondering what the steepest incline would be that earns the name "Dick's drop"! Are guys dragging brakes at all? Any braking bumps forming? What does the entry look like, grooved "V" shape channeling water yet?

 

Skidding, no, anything brake related is what makes cycling a crime to the uninitiated. Be it squeal or skidding or having to suddenly slow down, this is what drives resistance. You must see the letter I got from the horse group addressed to the hikers!? At first I was like :eek:, then I was like :w00t: , now I'm like :blink: because the prospect of engaging them in discussions is still looming :wacko: . Good thing we are friends of the Park :clap: .
