johanpre44 Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 Hi Hubbers, This being a new year I decided it's maybe time to get some more cycling done compared to what I usually do. I live in Weltevredenpark and usually take the MTB out towards Ruimsig/Cradle or over Northcliff for the spruit. It will be great cycling with others for a change (since I mostly cycle on my own). I prefer to ride from home mainly to save time (more riding less traveling), but will probably try and go to a venue of sorts every 4 to 6 weeks (like Northern Farms, Van Gaalens etc.). In summer early morning rides are great but in winter I like to do afternoon rides because of the better temperature. Any good clubs or group ride suggestions welcome.

keithbe Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Hi Johan I did a first ride with the guys and gals from JMBC(.org.za) this weekend at NFarm. Good group that have a varied routes every weekend. Check out their site for ride details. Perfect way to get to unseen trails with people that know how to get around.

How is your cycling coming along? Hey Johan, still not as fast as you, but progressing nicely . I have ridding some of the new trails in the cradle , but got a message yesterday that we must 'please not ride on them until they are complete'
