pedal menace Posted September 11, 2008 Share I'll be honest, been on many Sabie rides, never with a piece of paper. I guess it is more for record puproses (i.e. MTB, many cliffs, dangerous fun stuff) should you not return. Do what I did..begged the wife to stay at home and allow me to have a obscene amount of fun for a few days......just kidding! Be like Nike...JUST DO IT!

Dirtbreath Posted September 11, 2008 Share DB - sorry sir!! No problem. I might just have to rethink pre-ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedal menace Posted September 11, 2008 Share Apparently all the forest roads around Sabie are in fact private roads where in theory you are not allowed to ride on. The owner of Sabie informed me once that the permit is only for pre-marked routes and they are quite "short" in nature. No permit actually exists that allows you to just go into the mountains and ride. Too dangerous they claim with all the trucks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

York Timbers is a couple of kays down that road. I am presuming it is the same place they start the classic from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
