Tumbleweed Posted November 16, 2015 Share On saturday two loops of mixed green and blue routes at the vlei On the final loop going through the turns in the reeds i had to make a sudden stop for one of the locals. Snapped a quick pic and let him be Typical, the local made plenty of space for you, but, no, you still have to come onto the hub and complain about slower trail users...

DJR Posted November 17, 2015 Share To Hell and Back, literally and figuratively. Possibly the worst day I have ever spent on a bike. Really felt like hell all day and all the way! I lost every watt of power, every grain of dignity and in the end was reduced to walking on bits of Heartbreak Hill, which I don't do! Front brake gave in on the 1st descent and I rode most of those massive mountains only with a back brake. Scary stuff, I tell you! At least I could still appreciate the spectacular surroundings. The view from my tent is where I curled up to die with Beatbox checking that I was still breathing! Bloody flu, I had to bail for day 2!

NotSoBigBen Posted November 18, 2015 Share Unless some maintenance starts to happen quite quickly at Rietvlei I don't think I'll be riding there much for a while ..... had to stop 4 times yesterday to move fallen down trees and low hanging branches out the way, there were some that I couldn't move however .....

Hairy Posted November 19, 2015 Share So the sun rises nice and early, allowing one to do 5:20am starts on the Tygerberg trails. This morning I did my first one for this summer (before work ride) accompanied by good company ........ what a lovely trail Hoogies, with the new section called the "Gorge" being a very lekker addition to the trail. Peace love and happiness. Odinson, Lexx, Eddy Gordo and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
