Nettie R Posted April 20, 2007 Share Pls give a bit more info on NF. We've been there only for races a year or two back, but how does sunday rides work? Is it a club's HQ? Entry? Are routes available for a +-2hr intermediate ride. I need to start somewhere with mtb training: we want to ride Mabalingwe for the 1st time this year. ( thoughts on this race?)

MichH Posted April 20, 2007 Share Hi Fester, see www.satrails.co.za. Go to right hand side, click on link for more info on trails (document on NF) Northern Farm is a standalone, i.e. open to public not limited to a club. There are a lot of trails, mostly roads but a bit of singletrack. I haven't done Mabalingwe so not sure how it compares... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted April 20, 2007 Share Why 7:30 Mich? Why not 7:00? Earlier start, earlier finish. I would like to come aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I FLY Posted April 20, 2007 Share Thug, It looks as if I will be riding to NF from my place. Not sure of the routing yet. So I will phone you tomorrow once I have had time to think about. We can give you a lift back to your car afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichH Posted April 23, 2007 Share Sounds better than us, we burned rubber for 2:15, clocking about 40km. Luckily everyone agreed with me to call it a day, I was st&ffed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nettie R Posted April 23, 2007 Share You must have been the riders coming down the hill while we were battling up. You were flying. How big was your group? 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I FLY Posted April 23, 2007 Share Thug and I rode from Northcliff and got to Northern Farm at about 11h30. We expected to see a huge bunch of hubbers still there. Instead it looks as if everyone had seen DR's new bike, got hammered by the green -eyed monster and gone home with their tails between their legs. Remember people - "its not about the bike"! PS - Thug now understands when I say that my place is uphill. He did 150m climbing from his place to mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
