Wallee Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Ride before you buy hits KZN!Because you test-drive a car before you buy it we have created 'Ride Before you Buy'. Hundreds of mountain bikes from many different manufacturers are available for you to ride all day long on a closed test track. When:Saturday 23 MayTime:9am till 5pmWhere:Giba GorgeCost:R45 per person (includes a t-shirt and a copy of the latest magazine)Bring:Your shoes, pedals and helmet Yes please! I'm gonna ride bikes until I'm dizzy. Does anyone know which brands will be there?
Wallee Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 Bicycling magazine. Been done in JHB and CT. Now it's Durbs turn.
Mielies Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Is there a ride before you buy for road sometime later the year as well? Mielies2009-03-26 07:04:04
Overlord Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 No Scott,Specialized and a few others. Can't seem to remember. Was looking at the ladies instead of the bikes.
Wallee Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 No Scott or Specialized!? That just ruined my good mood! I'll just have to buy another brand.
wannabearacer Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 which track at giba is being used as the test track or do we have free reign
wannabearacer Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Attention all hubbers will Sean pls report to ride before you buy...
Flea Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Any idea of when they will be back in Jhb?I am looking for a new bike, so keen to test many. WEnt to last years, but only tested the 29er's as I was not then in the market.Maybe should shoot to Durbs for the weekend?Issue I suppose if Spez etc is not there, but then like Wallee, I will just chose another brand.
Anthony Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Pity you can't test real bikes funny, they never say that when you go to test drive a sports car...
Candz Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Im keen to go but not if the bikes are all the top of the range prices...cos then il just be depressed!
ShaughnK Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I was planning to go, but I was under the impression most manufacturers were bringing a range . ie. from the budget specials through to the R100k monsters. anybody know ?
wannabearacer Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 i am just wondering if this is still on as i have not heard anything for awhile??? does anyone have any news
