edkin Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Hi all I was cycling with my wife on Tuesday around Constantia Nek. we were coming down a hill and on our mtbs and we passed a group a guys (about 8 or 10) of more advanced age busy going in the opposite direction. It struck me afterwards that I should have asked them if they were a bunch of mates cycling together or if they were part of a riding club. I'm in my 60's and all my riding buddies are much younger than I am so it tends to become a struggle to keep up with them. Are there riding clubs for mature people in the Cape Town area? Asking for a friend ????

Nick Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 From riding past them in the deep South, the 5F Cycling Club out in Fish Hoek appear to support a wide range of age groups and ability levels.
edkin Posted October 28, 2021 Author Posted October 28, 2021 Is there any way I can contact them? Websites, telephone etc. (5F). @Pure Savage. That sounds perfect. Mature is boring. I want to get hold of the immature ones. Pure Savage, Help.Me., ChrisF and 1 other 2 2

Nick Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Ah, sorry. Didn't see that you are MTBing. I just assume road when I hear "riding club".
Jono Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 They also seem to do some mtb riding. See them at Bootleggers Tokai from time to time. @edkin I'm sure young @reflexus can put you in touch reflexus 1
edkin Posted October 28, 2021 Author Posted October 28, 2021 Great. I'll get in touch. thanks for the referral.
