AndreZA Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Phambilli is just there. Also Glenburn is there. Teak aswell.
Tumbleweed Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 forgot about teak. got a link? is phambili open during the weekend to the public? i thought it was just a race-specific venue.

If you going to teak, take some cash with. I believe they are now charging to access the MTB route. However that said, they have done a lot of work on their "blue" route and it is a tough, but fairly entertaining ride. I also noticed some "black" route boards going up. However rain chased me away before I could go play on those trails.
KDEE Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Mark, those black board trails are 'interesting' to say the least.. I battled big time with some of the hills. But then I am fat and unfit..

Thug Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Phambili is a private farm and is only open as far as I'm aware on race days.

markStockton Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I seem to remember that there are contact details for Phambili on the Rock Hoppers website. www.rmbc.co.za (I think).

AndreZA Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Phambili is on the Avianto road close to the hot air balloon place. Glenburn is just a bit further on the same road and turning right at the t-junction. Teak place is also out the same way but you turn left at the t-junction and then right and the circle past the lion park.
