Shazybug Posted April 9, 2014 Share Hi Guys Avid reader on the forum but first post. New to mountain biking and need some advice on the 30km route. My experience so far has only been in Tokai Forest. I have managed to ride up to the Silvermine Gate and to the tarred section before the Mast. How do these rides compare to the 30km Breede River ride? Will it be a bridge too far? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Quite tricky to figure out the limitations of one's abilities when you start out! I would say if it's your first ever race start of with the 17km on Saturday, do a 30km at the next one and "work your way up" as you gain confidence & fitness. The 30km looks relatively tough - about a 1000m of climbing which is a lot if you are new and/or unfit. Mads and Johny Bravo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wil have just as much fun, and get out of the house, and get a medal to show off to your friends later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for the 30km and take it easy, not so heavy for a first timer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
