Burner Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 How many trails are there? I'll be in Wilderness from the 27th Dec
Popit Posted December 14, 2015 Author Posted December 14, 2015 Apparently there are plenty , but we need the locals to show us .Harkerville ( Bike park ) is between Knysna and Plett .
Jakkals. Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I'm in natures valley...we can plan something
Duane_Bosch Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 How many trails are there? I'll be in Wilderness from the 27th DecTry the Garden Route Trail Park about 20km inland from sedgefield. AMAZING trail.

HeyYou Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Face book page KNYSNA CYCLING, or CYCLING KNYSNA, will fill you in a bit.Otherwise contact knysna Cycle works Or CycleWorx in Sedgefield Or Facebook page Plett Cycling or The Bike Shop. There's a new Bike Park at Cairn Brogie farm, airport Rd, Plett.
Bateleur1 Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Any suggestions for road cycling in Knysna?Out on the N2 via Natures valley to Storms river is lovely and then out to George up Outiniqwa pass is also a good ride.
r0adrunner Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 This will be my first December since I started riding (Dec 2012) that I do not go MTB in Knysna!! I am sad. There are some really awesome trails. The cycling shops usually have some brochures and they're very helpful.
zee Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Out on the N2 via Natures valley to Storms river is lovely and then out to George up Outiniqwa pass is also a good ride.is it safe riding on the N2?
Pure Savage Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 is it safe riding on the N2?I rode the N2 a lot past 4 years, decent yellow lane and people looking for bikes. Just would not do the pass at wilderness
PeterF Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Rode the Harkerville Red route yesterday. It was the most fun I had on a bike the entire year.
Bateleur1 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 is it safe riding on the N2? Yes. Going East you have descent yellow lane all the way. Going West mostly as well but as Pure Savage said the Kaimans river pass does not have a shoulder but the speed limit is low. It is about 2 - 3 km if I remember correctly. I did not have any issues and found the most people pass you wide on there and it is double lane. However you will be there in December. Have not ridden there in Peak season.

Have not ridden there in Peak season.To get round Kaimans pass you can pull into wilderness and go up the tar road there and then go over the old tar pass and come out in George, it's a bit steep but a great ride

Comming from George the Kaimans pass is not a problem. Mostly downhill.
