Trackside Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 The parking spot you are talking about also has a small restaurant with basic stuff like hamburgers and COLD beer. We even got a bike wash last year for R10
hoyt Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Hi there. If you riding Breedts nek tomorrow the 9th could i please join you. If you can contact me it would be better. My cell number is 0833506898. I normally ride Van Gaalens with my brother and my family, but they have all become lazy. Iam still trying to keep my training up but I dont want to cycle alone. long distance suites me fine as i race the full marathons.RegardsSandra.
DJ84 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 OK, So this Saturday at 7.00,Lets see if we can get some numbers there and actually do this ride.
Guest notmyname Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I'll be there with one maybe two in tow. We are leaving the farm at seven as the "other" has time issues.

Pikey Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Does this 60 km inc the breedts climb from the monster ? Don't know the area at all.

The ride starts in hekpoort and goes over breedts nek from south to north. The return is the same drag from north to South. It's gravel grinding the whole way.
