jhb cyclocross


Guttersnipe

Recommended Posts

So I am in the process of moving to johannesburg, and have just one bike with me right now - my cyclocross rig.

I know this has come up before, but it strikes me there are lots of obvious places to put together a cx race. The spruit, the park up above melrose arch (birdhaven?) zoo lake, etc.

Is anyone interested in helping put a low-key race together? We could do it bandit cross style, or try to get permission and do it properly. I don't know if there are enough people likely to be interested, but we wouldn't need many to make it fun - say 20, perhaps fewer.

If we aim for say the end of July, I'm happy to do what I can to help make it happen.

Deurmekaar looking, but huge fun to ride, in a perverse sort of way.

Boring old trails that you cruise on your mountainbike suddenly take on a whole new complexion...

Just enter any race at Northern Farms. I think the terrain there is perfect for CX.
