Hey guys,

 

I’m going to be in Upington over the weekend of 11/12 December, with nothing to do as I will be there for work.

 

So I was thinking about taking one of my bikes along (road or MTB), and going for some rides over the weekend. Are there any hubbers around those parts that could show me around, or ride with me? Any bike clubs / shops that do morning rides?

 

Any info would be much appreciated,

 

Thanks!

Dude uppington is hot as hell, stop over just before uppington as you cross the orange river and just go wine tasting 2 or 3 nice cellars there :)

H as H is an understatement for summer, prepare yourself for night riding rather, temps of 38 - 40 is the norm, and don't expect a possibility of clouds.

There are a couple of "farms"/wineyards along the river & "kanaal" that you can tackle, but very early morning is about the only advisable time. Sorry can't help you with

current groups/clubs, but the town is small
