calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I have linked up some pretty wicked singletrack on a few of the local game farms. My cycling partner refuses to cyle on f#$%#%ing 'hiking trails!' Looking for fellow hubbers to come out and ride the new route with me and give me feedback. It is very?rocky, technical and a lot of fun. Directions to were I am can be found here: http://www.cullinanmeander.co.za/maps/Dinokeng_Map.html The ride starts at number 21, Kwalata Game Reserve. Please PM me if you are keen.
MintSauce Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Damn....wrong province....perhaps if I'm up there again at some point
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 Just give me heads-up next time you are out here. Where are you based?
AndreZA Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Okay, this is a hi-jack, give me your thread. I finally saw the complete "The Collective" and I must say I will never do those things they do. Jumping on those raised slats with a see-saw comming ahead and then go ove a skinny. Nee dankie. I will gladly anounce that I'm a girl when I'm faced with that. I will evenwear yellow lycra booties. Okay, you can have your thread back.
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 Might be in the Cape for the Silverback launch. Can you take your Mtb up on the cable car yet?
Hog_ Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 How far is the route? I'm not a fan of rocky terrain, but I'm a sucker for singletack!
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 Going to ride it again in about 30 min! Anytime?this weekend if?there?are?any takers. Just let??me know when.?
_Daemon_ Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Is it mostly just rocky singeltrack? Like Hog said i like singletrack but not so much super rocky sections, prefer drops, jumps, north shore etc for technical riding.
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 The really rocky section only lasts for about 3km. The rest is winding, fast singletrack. Couple of smaller drop-offs, tight turns and a lot of rollercoaster. About 25km in total but there is endless animal-made singletrack if you want to go further.
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 what the cable car? Impossible It?would be killer?if?we?could take?bikes up?on?the?cable car?and then ride?down?the back-end?of table?mountain.
GoLefty!! Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 what the cable car? ImpossibleIt would be killer if we could take bikes up on the cable car and then ride down the back-end of table mountain. It would be but the operator willnever allow it. Too many tourists so it would be a safety issue and the wholegondola would have to be redesigned and re-certified.

How long drive is it from Joburg? I think we should arrange a group!
calabash Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 A group would be a great idea. 100km from Fourways if that helps.
