Christofison Posted August 26, 2020 Share https://www.georgeresort.co.za/ is probably the closest. Don't know how nice it is though. Next closest is probably Vic Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride Rate Review Posted August 27, 2020 Share Finally!!! This is exciting stuff. I am sure there are plenty of accommodation spots available, check airbnb(provided it's allowed) usually some good spots for not that much money.

Will you be there? Christofison 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos Posted August 28, 2020 Share I'm expecting a fair bit of climbing! I've ridden the DH (10 years ago) and some of the trails closer to the Botanical gardens and its all pretty steep. Excited for a day of riding with some new peeps. My ticket is booked. Registered and Accommodation booked in Hartenbos Wednesday to Sunday, so the kids can play on the beach. Wont have time for a recon though. Any Ideas of which trails will be ridden (sneak peak on trail-forks) Christofison 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll definitely have to do some route marking to make sure you guys don't take a wrong turn mid-stage. 1300m of climbing. The route is plotted on Trailforks, but not published. The Hillbillies employees still have a few trails to cut open, after the heavy winds. I'll drop the route here mid-September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Habrador Posted August 31, 2020 Share Here's how NOT to do the second one...You will struggle to accidentally hit them. You see them from plenty far away to avoid em. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WAvC3Eud-ICould that video be more terrible? ????????

Joshua Langenhoven Posted September 2, 2020 Share Well, hopefully It has better weather, although at this stage I will take anything!It’s right in the middle of my preliminaries for matric so I’ll take anything. Rain, heat or snow. I just need a break before finals. ???? Christofison 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christofison Posted September 3, 2020 Share https://community.bikehub.co.za/features/_/articles/routes-trails/trail-daze-witfontein-r6180?source=topic Aperitif !If only the forest still looked like this. It looks like the aftermath of a war zone at the moment. All the trees that burnt a couple years ago have since rotten, and the strong winds that rolled through several weeks ago just snapped most of the trees in half or completely uprooted them.The trails are riding really nicely though. The Hillbillies MTB Club and trail running groups have been working really hard to open everything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
