Chris, if no one is keen to ride the spruit with you, and you're still keen on a ride... then come on down to the bike park. I'll be there from 3:30-ish

That may be a plan. I have a 10 ride voucher I must cash in. Do you think I will manage ok there? I am still a noobie and haven't ridden for a long while.

yeah, you should be fine. I've taken friends there prior to which they had never ridden off road. By the end of the day they were doing some of the black diamond runs.

 

Besides... I'll be on a heavy bike so I just take it easy and have fun.

 

You been there before?

No, I havent. Will get ready to leave now. I am riding there from just the other side of Fourways so not sure exactly when I will get there. I am on my black Silverback Spectra with white stickers and matt black MET helmet in case you forgot what I look like. Oh, and a penguin on my cycling shirt.

cool cool! I'm leaving the office now.

 

I'll be on a white and silver Yeti with yellow rims. (Not the morewood that you saw me on last time).

 

See you in a bit

Finally back on my bike. 25km ride total including to and from the bike park.

 

Maybe I will meet you guys at Fratelli next week but I doubt I will be able to keep up with you guys on the spruit, I will probably do my own thing. It gives me 30km just to Fratelli and back which should help me get back some fitness.
