hxnk Posted August 18, 2021 Share Bicycle Line Summerfields (on Atlas Road) has various groups (usually a 25, 28, 32 ave speed) each morning (Tuesdays - Fridays) leaving Bicycle Line Summerfields at 4:40 am. There is also a group starting 4:20 am at the engen garage on the corner of Kingfisher and Rondebult, as well as Sunward Park Slipstreamers leaving from the garage on Kingfisher accross Papachinos. There is also a group starting from the BP on North Rand road, but I'm not sure what time they start, but from my understanding they usually average 30+. Most of these groups have their own whatsapp group where they post ride times and routes. I usually commute to Bicycle Line every morning, if you're looking for someone to commute there and back send me a message ZamaK and Dexter-morgan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BouncingBrain Posted November 7, 2021 Share Are there any groups which ride slightly 'later', at around 520am? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just show up and ride. You can ask employees in the bike shop to add you to the whatsapp group where they post the rides and routes. And e-bikes are welcome, always a handful of e-bikers that join the ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most groups start before 5am because the roads are just too busy after ~6:30 in my experience. And the aformentioned groups have good numbers, some mornings the largest group has ~20 cyclists and on Fridays some of the groups have almost 60 cyclists doing an airport loop.
