District Roads Training

[Blackheart]

Anyone know of any district, dirt road routes to train on for Trans Karoo.

I've been doing a lot of big miles on the road, getting bored with that.

Looking for a good 5 hour loop preferably, not too much climbing, reasonably close to CT and safe.

Koeberg Nature Reserve? You'll have to do it several times to fill 5hrs

The District roads on the overberg and around Grabouw are awesome... We use them for Expedition training. If you are clever then link them up with Lebanon and Oak Valley and the new trail centre at Paul Cluver for some fun inbetween the hard miles....

Thanks.

I've done a few rides out there from Hout Bay and then a lap of Koeberg.

Maybe have to do a few more laps

Cool, thanks.

We ride mostly district roads north and east of Durbanville. Tomorrow we start in Wellington to do a 100km loop to Riebeek-Kasteel and back. Pm me if you want more details
