That tree drop-off is genius... LOVE IT!

We had our eye on that tree for over two years and we knew, one day, that tree is ours  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

 

We also plan a BIG drop-off to the right of the tree as an alternate ride plus a return loop to do it all over again.

 

We will also cut a return into the Red Technical Route so that it can be ridden as many times as you want.

 

Last but not least. lots of berms are coming to the faster sections to make them even faster plus we are planning an entire aerial route, like a low north shore style ride before the end of the year. This will be very close to the Mieliefield Meander.

 

ENTER THE RACE & BRING YOUR FRIENDS  :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Rode this for the first time today. What a lot of fun !

 

Great track, well done by the builders.

 

Just a question. We did the red route, rode 14 km per loop. Is this the complete loop, as it feels as if we missed a section.

 

Maybe I just wanted it to be longer.

Benoni Country Club Mountain Bike Trails in collaboration with Procycles are proud to present the Thursday Summer Race Series. The Summer series takes place on the last Thursday of the months of January, February and March 2017.

 

Race starting times are from 18h45 and all entrants will complete a 17km timed lap through the Benoni Country Club. The race route will be a combination of club access roads and the renowned MTB trail route.

 

The route specifically EXCLUDES the two infamous Red technical zones and is specifically designed for the enjoyment of all levels of cyclists ranging from beginners to seasoned pros.

 

Race entry fee is R 50.00 per person. Registration opens at 18h00. Entrants will be batched into starting groups based on age beginning from Under 23 up to Grand Veterans over 60. Men and women will be batched separately. Group winners will be selected based on the fastest combined times over the three race series. The overall winner will be the fastest combined 3 times, regardless of age or sex category.

 

The Thursday Summer Race Series will run into the Autumn, Winter and Spring Series with a total of 12 races through the year. Overall winners will be the fastest combined 12 race times.

 

The series has been established not only to recognise the fastest and fittest, but to encourage ALL cyclists to come out and enjoy a wonderful evening at the Benoni Country Club. Experience the trail in a different “light”. Bring the family, ride and enjoy refreshments and a meal afterwards. Challenge your friends, bring your whole company along for a corporate challenge or just come and ride the beautiful trails for the pure enjoyment.
