Rietvlei dam (Pta) only has about 12km worth of singletrack... Much rather do the monument and fountains / Groenkloof
Even Fort Klapperkop has some schweet trails, as well as a DH course. Of course, full face and knee pads would be required to properly do these :-) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carine Sent: 14 April 2011 11:42 To: darkanddirty Subject: [D&D-chat] the Great Gauteng Easter Bike Park Fact Finding Mission When someone ask me what my favourite singletrack is, the reply is simple: it would be the last one I rode. I have a few firm favourites among the bike parks in and around Gauteng ... which means that I don't often see new ones, or forget about old favourites. So i was wondering about the others ... how many bike parks are there, what are they like ... and in how many bike parks can you ride before you get bored of singletrack? Here's the plan for trying to get bikeparked out over the easter holidays: 22 April (Easter Friday): Groenkloof & Fountains 23 April (Easter Saturday): Rietvlei (the one where the 24hours was) 24 April (Easter Sunday): Kings Kloof (will find out if they're open) 25 April (Easter Monday): Van Gaalens 26 April (working Tuesday): MTN bikepark (it's open till late on tuesdays) 27 April (Freedom Wednesday): Teak Place 28 April Dark&Dirty Thursday ... I wonder if the Dark&Dirty crowd would include Xtacy park if i told them about the bikepark-a-day mission?? We've also cycled to XTracks a few times ... 29 April - work & recover 30 April (Saturday): Northern Farms 1 May (Workers' Sunday): Voortrekker Monument? The Pretoria Rietvlei? 2 May (Worker's Monday): Boschkop? Which bike parks have I missed that should have been on the list? These rides could vary, e.g. some of them afternoon rides, some morning rides. Most of these have trailrunning-tracks too :) Will send times through when i know whos' interested in joining me on which days :) c. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DarkAndDirty" group.
