Last week thirteen riders assembled in the Moo Mall parking area with Shane bringing a whole contingent of newbies and oldies like QT returning. Francois unfortunately did not even make it out of the area when he discovered a cut in his tubeless sidewall and, having given away his spare tube the previous week, he decided to call it a night and go home.
The remaining twelve proceeded to Xtacy park, Supertube, Ezekiels drop-off, Wash-'n-go, Python, Bat Tunnel, Speed Queen and halfway up Mieliemuur to stop at Moo Mall after 24.8 km according to Andries' Strava recording. On the way Sonja and I performed some ungraceful dismounts, but still enjoyed the ride. Andries took some nice pictures which you can watch at https://www.facebook.com/andries.beyers/media_set?set=a.10152788015265522.1073741869.555705521&type=1 This week we do the the Dirt Flirt Ride which basically follows a course the Trailmeister picks from moment to moment. It is perhaps a bit more technical than the Intro, but you can do it at your own pace - we will wait for you (and expect you to do the same for us!). Please indicate before *Thursday 14h00* that you are coming so that we can know that there will be enough people for a safe ride. If you send me a message at 17h00, it is too late as I might have cancelled the ride already. You can also send a text (SMS) or a WhatsApp message to 0736891370 and I will report the number of takers on Thursday afternoons on the mailing lists and the Facebook page of "Let's ride Pretoria".
