Went Saturday with my training partner and did only 1 loop.

 

Wow, what an amazing place. Views are great and the downhill makes up for the tough climbs.

 

Will be back soon for another session.. :clap:

Also there yesterday but 1 lap was tough enough!was cream crackered. The wind was insane,tough on the climbs & sketchy as all hell on the downs. But satisfying when down.

Anyone have any info on staying over for the night there? Used to be Protea Hotel? Not anymore?

Can't find any info.

Send an email to this guy... sibusiso.thusi@gauteng.gov.za

 

He contacted me in May after a series of cycle-related accidents in the reserve, one of which was fatal. They were looking for input from runners and cyclists on how to ensure the safety of cyclists in the reserve.

 

Sadly, like most things in local government, nothing came of the info we sent and they have now implemented their own set of rules - a copy of which should be handed out at the gate.
