There used to be a race back in the 80's called the 4 passes but started in Stellenbosch and went round the other way up helshoogte... and back to stellenbosch. Only helped out one time but what a route......

How hard is the pace going to be? Or is it going to be a nice LSD ride...

I take it Its a road ride?:unsure:

 

Put Me on the list..What time will we leave? cause sir lowries must be *** dangerous! day or night...

 

Ive never ridden my roadbike outside the penunsula or knysna, so Im going to "put it outhere". This sounds like 4-5 hours?

Let us know what time and where to meet in S/West... I like the sound of "nice and easy"...

 

If we stop in Franshoek, it'll probably be close to 6 hours me thinks. Bos you'll enjoy it - bring your new road bike out for spin... and i think we will go thru Sir Lowry's pass village - so it's just the last part of Sir Lowry's that we are actually on the dangerous part (its up to fundacious which way we go thou - he is the 4passes mission leader)

Quite keen to do this with you, Fandacious.

Sounds like a lekka challenge. And meeting some new faces.

 

17th is my birthday. Hmmm... what to do...?

 

:rolleyes:

waterstone village 7am.

 

we can go thru sir lowrys pass village and pick up our bikes over the railing at the top, or we can go all the way up the n2. theres quite a wide shoulder to cycle on. we can discuss it on the morning and see what the majority is comfortable with
