Bonus Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I'm enjoying this route very much. Handy for when I want a fast MTB ride and Wendy wants a Road ride. I see lots of thorns in my tyres though - slime saves the day :-)
RocknRolla Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Also did a couple of rides there lately. Very enjoyable. Except for the drag back home along beyers..As for the track, very enjoyable. I see Hero adventure have cleared the culvert at the old teak place, thus no more road crossing, a lot safer.

I've been doing from the Lion & Rhino along the track to Beyers and back on the road. Today I did it twice. From the top of the hill where they dump food from the Cradle restaurant (where you often see baboons) to Beyers is a wicked flowing downhill almost all the way. :-)
RocknRolla Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Yeah, that really is an enjoyable piece, one can pick up some nice speed on that section.

We couldn't make the climb out on the other side but it's very rideable on a single

Bonus Posted January 2, 2016 Author Posted January 2, 2016 Took some time to cut away some overhanging bushes opposite the Rhino. & Lion. Not enough to upset anyone, just enough that you don't get scratched next time you ride! :-)
RocknRolla Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 Ooh boy, had a blast on this route this morning. Incorporated a new kinda route to the start, and in stead of doing the drag up beyers, I turned around at the end, and followed the same route back home, ended up, doin an extra 12kms.

Will see what it's like tomorrow - we're riding there first thng.

Bonus Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 from out of town. I staying near Cradlestone Mall. Dont mind getting in the car to drive to a start point. Were should on start to do a decent loop. Park at Something Country, the MTB route starts outside Kloofzicht entrance, 500m from Something Country. Ride down the hill on the trail. Turn right at the bottom and its 12.5km to the end of the trail at the roundabout at the end of Beyers Naude Drive. From there you have to either ride back the way you came, but in the road (the trail is one way) or turn right at the roundabout and ride road back to Something Country completing the loop. When were you thinking of riding?
