calabash Posted October 26, 2009 Share I am opening up a new 1200h farm and need mountain bikers to come out and explore. Not to many dangerous animals kicking about. ?You will need tubeless tyres or tyres full of sealant. I am situated about 40km N of Pretoria.

calabash Posted October 26, 2009 Share There are two lodges within cycling distance. Motlemetse is R150/p for a cabin or R250/p for an en-suite chalet. Nokeng Eco Lodge has R50 camping and a host of other accom. Both spots?are?on?the Elands river?and pretty?amazing. Cycling is flat, thorny and easy on the eys. Lots of jeep and animal-made singletrack to link up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manbearpig Posted October 26, 2009 Share Ok so if we are out there for a day or 2 what kind of fish can we catch in the Elands river when we are done riding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calabash Posted October 26, 2009 Share Now that is a cycling question! A lot of bass! There are also yello's, barbel and Tilapia. The Elands feeds Rust de Winter dam so the fishing is magical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibles Posted October 26, 2009 Share How safe is the area i.e. how big a group do you recommend? I'm female and like to ride on my own hence the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calabash Posted October 27, 2009 Share Hey Mandibles. You can ride on your own. I would suggest keeping away from the rivers ?due to the hippos and crocs. There is also a womans only group that rides in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calabash Posted October 27, 2009 Share You are welcome to bring dirtbikes but they are not allowed on the farm. I do have some killer dirtbiking nearby though.
