braailegend Posted April 10, 2015 Share just moved to Middelburg(in the North [EDIT: Mpumalanga]) this week, from a Stellenbosch. Brought my bike with. I'm looking for some safe spots I can start to ride. I mostly ride light DH and aggressive single tracks, but middelburg seems kind of flat, haha.Any ideas where I can go and what bike shops are decent?

Bongoleo Posted April 12, 2015 Share Go ride at Tranquilitas Adventure Farm, Waterval Boven Its an hours drive East on the N4.Everything you want right there. Edited April 12, 2015 by Bongoleo braailegend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcBurger Posted April 13, 2015 Share Agreed 100%. Tranquilitas is awesome. not close enough for a daily ride, but well worth the weekend/day trip. Camp site is really good value as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonky Posted April 13, 2015 Share You can also try Misty Valley - also an hour's drive and only ZAR35 - http://www.mistyvalleymtb.co.za/bike-trails.html Here's a good overview of trails in yr area: http://cycology371.com/mpumalanga-trails/ braailegend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bees Posted April 13, 2015 Share Middelburg...... Singletracks....Yes.Middelburg...... Downhill.....Nope.(It is similar to parts of the FS....Very Flat)Â Best chance would be to talk/ride with some of the locals. Go Cycles.....Would be a good place to start. braailegend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braailegend Posted February 25, 2016 Share Havent been online in a while, but feel like riding this weekend. Anyone riding Saturday or Sunday? Dont really want to ride alone, a helmet is not protection enough, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
