Dirtbreath Posted April 29, 2009 Share There are 3 marked routes. I suggest you do route 1 first. It is short but pretty cool to orientate yourself. Then try 2 and 3. I cant remember the distances. Your alternative is to do an anti-clockwise loop following the road as close to the fence as possible. The loop pretty much starts and end other side of the highway bridge. Do a search for northern farm here and you'll find some maps. Have a cool time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Agteros Posted April 30, 2009 Share I was not following any specific routes, but here are a few ideas of where the tracks are:http://connect.garmin.com/activity/4313548 http://connect.garmin.com/activity/4350432 The route boards are a bit chaotic at certain places, and remember not to act like BTS Be curtious, and remember to smile and wave! You will get riders going the other/'wrong' way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted April 30, 2009 Share Don't spend too much time playing below, you still need to ride up those hills at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L.T.G Posted April 30, 2009 Share Thanks for all the feedback guys. hopefully picking up my new bike today, so thought i'd give NF a bash. previously only ridden Groenies, Rievlei,Logwood and newwood. so thought a change for my new baby would be good......

Guest Agteros Posted April 30, 2009 Share I hope Mampara was referring to the sections closer to the airport, on the other side of the small dams where you can go up and down the dam[n] walls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trackz Posted April 30, 2009 Share We ride there couple times a month, my advice ... just ride where the wind takes you and explore all the small tracks. Some of the real gems are in between the main routes. Just pack a sandwich and take a bladder and go explore the farm. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
