MichaelJA Posted August 25, 2014 Share Keen to ride on Saturday, more or less a 65km, average 28-30km/h, any groups I could join? As you can see by my profile I am a newbie to the site and thus dunno if there already is a group going on Sat. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morne's Posted August 30, 2014 Share Hi All, I am a competitive vet cyclist, road and MTB. I've just moved to Durbanville from JHB and I am not yet familiar with the routes. I've done quite a bit of MTBing since I got here but need to start getting in some long road rides. What are the best and safest routes to ride on a road bike in this area? I am looking for safe routes to ride early mornings during the week, about 70km's and about 150 to 200 on the weekends. Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerlach Posted September 1, 2014 Share Hey Hey Everyone!!! Ok, winter mtb rides is over, so I want to find out if some off you guys are riding in the afternoon after work.

Let me know if there is any rides happening in the afternoon. i will coming out of Bellville side so i can join up from 4:45-5:00Pm. avg between 28-34km/h Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannabe Posted September 3, 2014 Share Most of the rides now is for teams training for the DC. Unlikely that they will allow non team riders to join in their training rides.Myself is still in Mtb mode, so I'll be doing a long Mtb ride this Saturday.
