Uni Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 If I remember correctly, a while back there was a uproar about charging cyclist a lot more to ride there but I can't find anything on the site, only per car/per person rates. Anyone know?
Warren911 Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Was there about 2 weeks ago and prices were normal.Can't remember exactly but something like R100 for 3 adults, 1 car and 2 bikes

awesme Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Would love to see them add a 50-60km single track/MTB purpose route through there. G
Little Fish Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Yah. Tx guys. Heading there today for the first time Let me know how it is please...one of my friends came back crying & I've been too scared to try it since then! Wait a second....it's a work day?...slacker!
Falco Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 ...one of my friends came back crying He may have come back crying, but he certainly came back stronger. There is no better training spot anywhere in Jhb.
Li Mu Bai Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 its R33 to ride there now, went up 10% after that uproar.
Waynehans Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Im going at 12, I paid R25 last wednesday, they change like the weather... HAHA
Uni Posted May 16, 2014 Author Posted May 16, 2014 Let me know how it is please...one of my friends came back crying & I've been too scared to try it since then! Wait a second....it's a work day?...slacker!Couldn't stomach a 5 day week, so took the week and a few other days off He may have come back crying, but he certainly came back stronger. There is no better training spot anywhere in Jhb. But it says suitable for beginners... No matter, I shall try.My Gnasher heels well when we walk together
Falco Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 But it says suitable for beginners... I guess it depends on the beginner... A full loop is 57k's with 1200 metres of climbing. The back hill alone feels like 10000 metres if you aren't in good condition. Imo that's not beginner territory. Unless he/she likes walking
Warren911 Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 it is TOUGH!!!! But a good ride, not really for the unfit, but if you take your time and walk, it should be ok.but prepare to cry!!!!
Tayyib Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Rode their this past sunday,cost us 30 each.in total was a 100randelas for 3 guys,3 bikes and the vehicle...long as you have a reasonable base fitness and enjoy climbing youl be fine.(Don't walk) that gets you no where!! HTFU
mtbDobby Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Hi Guys - I have ridden there once years ago on a road bike, I heard somewhere that the road is in bad shape and dangerous - is it ok to still ride the road bike or would I be better served with the mtb? that 1st ride broke me....I have not been back since but I guess I must man up.
Waynehans Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Geez, this wind really picking up, I wanna go ride, but at this stage, I think a cold beer gonna be a better option!!!!!!
