Chris NewbyFraser Posted March 14, 2021 Share I remember there used to be a very informal 3 day thrash that ran from the central Berg somewhere to Midmar(?). I recall legends about its laid back camping personality with an 'extremely' chilled character owing to its liberal nightime refuelling policy.What was its title? This made me think that the upper Midland area would be a fine setting for an amateur road rider 2 to 3 day stage tour, but based at a single venue. Roads are not too busy with some routes(like the climbs out of Estcourt, Mooi River, Bergville) offer stiff tests while the rest all are rolling hills and the scenery is attractive. This is well within easy drives from Gauteng and Kzn. I wonder if, with the stage racing craze running in mtb and gravel, there is a possible future for a road event? Any enterprising clubs willing to look at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
