Jehosefat Posted November 12, 2018 Share So I haven't done any personally but based on a few of my friends' Strava activities they seem to start at the Engen on Main road just North of the intersection with William Nicol at 4:55 on Wednesdays and/or Thursdays. Again, this is based on what I have seen on Strava and not personal experience so don't take it as gospel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeepee Posted November 12, 2018 Share 4 year old post..... timelessI havent rode this route for a while, this past Friday I was there a bit early, so instead of waiting I decided to start riding so long. As I crossed William Nicol (green for me) two idiots on their way to the engen blasted over the red light, almost crashed into me and then proceeded to hurl abuse at me for not having a light on the front. I then remembered why I havent ridden this for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrightJnr Posted November 12, 2018 Share Not sure what their pace rules are but they normally pass me around Northcliff Botanical Gardens area....and they are flying!! I’m guessing they around 32km/h ave on this ride at a minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulst12 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Race rules on Tuesdays so save your legs on Monday (don't expect anyone to wait if you puncture or get dropped). Wed is slightly more chilled and less hilly. Thursday hots up again and is almost as fast as Tuesdays and then Friday is a coffee ride as everyone gets ready for the weekend.If you have a mtb bike Wed goes out to Kyalami and is pretty quick and Friday is a surf&turf which is a whole lot of fun....

Long Wheel Base Posted November 13, 2018 Share 4 year old post..... timelessFrom what I hear it's still the same MO for this ride. 4 years on and they haven't changed their ways ITO obeying the road rules and safety. Not cool IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cycling Major Posted November 13, 2018 Share Are there any other group rides, in and around the area (or even Randburg) with groups bigger than 10 that you guys would suggest. Looking for a good bunch of people to keep the accountability going of meeting with a bunch and also pushing each other to ride better and faster Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
