Andrie Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 Hi everyone, I am looking for a riding group or buddy in the Parkhurst/Greenside/Linden area. I try to ride the Spruit (MTB) on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon. I do 45 to 60 km per ride at around 20 km/h ave speed. On a Sunday I normally do a 100 km road ride from Parkhurst, past Boad Acres, through the cradle and back via Ontdekkers. This at around 27 km/h. Would love to hear from guys or girls who do something similar. Cheers!
zuludog Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 i live in the area. i will start riding in the mornings ( tues + thurs ) on the spruit from middle sept. will also look at longer rides on the spruit over weekends. i do go quite a bit slower than you though.
Idiot Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 So you are the kind of lucky buggers I drive past on my way to work or back home.. Cycling whilst others are "enjoying" the traffic.
Andrie Posted September 1, 2014 Author Posted September 1, 2014 Zuludog, I try to work during the morning JPC, I guess you are right, to "own" your own time is an advantage
nonky Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I am in for mornings on the Spruit - what time? 05h00 / 05h30? Been a bit sick, so 20kmph is a bit off but not too much. (sorry for underline, stupid internet explorer)
Mr.November Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Hi guys, what section of the Spruit do you guys do? Or where do you usually start from?
RichieT Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I try to do a 20km dash on Wednesday arvies from Victory Park shopping centre to Hurlingham and back... starting around 4.30PM, av speed about 15+ a bit
Francois Pienaar Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I try to add north cliff hill into each spruit journey. The hill makes it feel like a better work out. B:)
