The Guy in Pink Posted February 14, 2017 Share Some future Champs are going to come from the Soutpansberg.The groupie below is yesterday's gaggle of primary school kids. They meet in Hanglip forest at least twice a week , Monday and Wednesday , and often are taken to the Spur schools rides on Saturdays or have an all day "Picnic Ride" on the Mountain. Last year I joined in with two picnic rides with these little fellas - each time we covered almost 30km in the day and climbed 980m of ascent! Mark & Johan you guys are Tops!

The Guy in Pink Posted February 14, 2017 Share Awesome. I am sure you have some great trails there in Bluegumpoort area.In Hanglip forest itself we have about 100km of trail, Road, jeep track & single tracks.Apart from some single track near the entrance - the River Trail - almost everything involves heavy climbing ( and fun downhill's afterwards) We can join up with the Bluegumspoort road by going around Hanglip mountain. The Bluegumspoort road is about 22 Km long.A Trip from town up and around Hanglip and down again - without detours - is 30km and involves almost 1000m of ascent.These kids have the best MTB training ground there is And for those who do not know Hanglip here it is in the morning sun.
