MichH Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 Mampara, I'm not going to talk to you! Not fair that you're going to the coast whilst we have to sit at the office! I know you're going to have a great time!
wonduhboy Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 MichH, have you guys decided where you are going?
Thug Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 Can't committ yet, will have to see what my Saturday ride looks like.
MichH Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 wonduhboy, what would be your choice? I still love the Spruit, but wonder if I'm spending too much time there. If we do settle on the Spruit, was keen to go up to Albert's Farm, down through Emmarentia all the way to Randburg and then back through Delta Park. Fairly long ride, lots of fun.
wonduhboy Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Was also thinking Northern Farm, maybe about 2 hrs. Just getting back into MTBing, so need to find my technical skills
miss V Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 I am new, where exactly is northern farm and how technical is it?
dirtrider Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 It is not very technical . Actaully it can be non-technical if you wanna . It is in the Diepsloot area but I will get directions and list it .
MichH Posted February 15, 2007 Author Posted February 15, 2007 OK, 2 hour ride at Northern Farm this Sunday. Start: 7amRide for 2 hoursNon-technical (with an extra loop for more technical riders)Directions to follow. Who's in?
MichH Posted February 15, 2007 Author Posted February 15, 2007 From Fourways, take Cedar road past Broadacres and Chartwell. At the Tjunction, turn right onto the R114. Follow this road for a few km until you see the Bunkhouse on the left. This is where you buy tickets. After buying tickets, continue in the same direction for another few km, over the river and past Heronbridge College. At the top of the hill, you will see an entrance on the left with a Johannesburg Water (JW) sign outside. This is Northern Farm. Drive in the gate and park in the parking lot (with wooden horsey fences!) From Pta, take the freeway towards Krugersdorp (from Centurion go straight, from Groenkloof turn right). Follow this past Diepsloot, take the next offramp at R512. Turn left. At robot (Lion Park Cafe is ahead) turn left again. Follow this road for at least 10km until you pass Cedar road on the right. Follow directions as above.
dirtrider Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 OK will be there . u give directions , mine sucks
wonduhboy Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 I'm keen - just need to see if I'll get my bike back before the weekend (currently in the LBS)Will be able to confirm tmrw.
MichH Posted February 15, 2007 Author Posted February 15, 2007 DR and MichH so far. Wonduhboy?Saffa G?Miss V?The Thug? Will find out if ThePanda's bike is fixed. We broke it when we last went riding (wasn't my fault!!)
