Karinvdw Posted November 19, 2013 Share Does anybody know of a nice route (mtb) in Malelane? Here for the week and would really like to do a ride or two but don't know where to ride or where it is safe? Any advice will be appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOFX Posted November 19, 2013 Share No routes in Malelane............in my opinion, not a nice place to spend a week, except if you go into the Park every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am here for work, did some riding in Sabie over the weekend, and now my bike is here with me, so very sad to have a bike and not being able to ride.

Got permission today, so tomorrow at 5am I am going up (and down the same road). Not crazy enough to do the downhill track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is the same road that goes to Serenity Mountain Lodge. Will give it a try Lexx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bike can handle anything.......ScottNot crazy enough to do the downhill track. hahaha! hayleyearth was referring to he DH course... and whilst she own 2 Scotts (I dunno why ), I doubt she'd take either of them down that track. This was her weapon of choice (Intense) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayleyearth Posted November 20, 2013 Share My bike can handle anything.......Scott Yeah, like Patches said...I have 2x Scotts and neither will survive there!! The one won't even make it to the start of the track and the other might be able to do 5 consecutive meters of the complete track before falling apart (and maybe braking me more in the process).
