Valverde Re-opening for Cyclists to Park and Ride

[kino]

Hi Everyone, some of you know me, I am Joaquin Valverde, Owner of Valverde Eco Hotel and also a keen Cyclist and triathlete. We have been closed for two months and now (once we move to level 3 of the lockdown) we are ready to reopen our parking for cyclists, runners, etc to park and exercise.

 

For starters, during the week it will only be "park and ride" and on weekends, we will do take away cappuccinos, cold drinks, muffins, egg and bacon rolls and boerewors rolls. We are not allowed to open the restaurant to sit down as yet. if the demand call for it, then we will also do coffees, etc during the week.

 

We will be charging the usual R20 for parking (from Monday to Sunday) but we will have two options:

 

1. Usual voucher where you can redeem for a drink, etc at the restaurant.

2. A contribution voucher to help us carry some of the fixed costs  like security, maintenance, etc.

 

I personally thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the support over the years and hope to see you personally there in the coming weeks. I will be behind the coffee machine welcoming you and making coffee for everyone in the coming weeks.

 

We have taken a huge knock but we will get out of this stronger and better than ever.

 

Safe cycling everyone!

Hi JP

 

That is amazing news! I think there are literally hundreds of cyclists looking forward to ride in the Cradle again and I hope they ALL support you!

The parking is secure and the service friendly, from the guys at the gate to the Waitrons.

Best of luck, see you guys on Monday!

Miss the cradle a whole pile and spent many hours post a ride at Valverde out in the courtyard with a coffee and breakfast. 

 

Good luck and best wishes going forward.
