PappaBear Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Right, here we go..... I have an open invite to all hubber-mtb'ers who want to explore the ceres valley, to come and join me for a nice ride at Eselfontein, on Saturday, 4 April 2009. Time to be determined, probably 8:00. This is to be followed by a lekker Wimpy breakfast for those interested. I have not consulted the racing calender as I will not do any races on that date, so no need to remind me....... So far the people joining: PappaBearQuickdraw PappaBear2009-03-13 05:59:01

PappaBear Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 For those not in the know..... Eselfontein is a farm 15km outside Ceres with 3 mtb loops, with about 80% singletrack..... 3 different loops: 24km/40km/70km Varying types of terrain.... from indiginous forrest to karoo to orchards..... Very good quality track!

PappaBear Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 The routes are very well marked, I don't have gps routes for the tracks.... Entry for the farm is free, was R20 but an unfortunate incident made the owner change to free, but no responsibility on the owner....... (at least that is the information I have, so don't use this as law)
PappaBear Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 *BUMP* Is anybody able to confirm joining yet?
