JMBC Memel Away Weekend JMBC is organising an away mountain biking weekend to Memel in the Free State from Friday (25th) to Sunday (27th) i.e. 2 nights Friday and Saturday. If you are pressed for time, you can come down for just one of the nights because it is only 2.5 hours away. Memel is considered the next Clarens and has hordes of mountain biking opportunities - see www.memelgetaways.co.za for more details of the area. Please contact Steve (below) if you have other queries. If you are interested, act quickly since it is a long weekend for some (Heritage Day is on the 24th - Thursday). All welcome...... For non-cycling partners: very inviting hotel pub w/ televised sports, great walks in beautiful settings nearby (see the Sediba Hiking trail), and the Seekoeivlei Wetlands (self driving tours). Check details at www.memelgetaways.co.za & email:
