Route and Ride Description: Starting at Paulshof, we ride West to Clay Oven, then North to Lonehill, across to Broadacres, through Farmall to Logwood and on to Ngwenya (pitstop), Beyers Naude (yellow) or Ruimsig (blue and red) to Strubens, Northcliff Hill, Alberts Farm , Spruit and home.
Note the hills are not that steep (except for Northcliff), there are just a lot. It is possible to abandon the ride at Ngwenya Glass if you run into trouble.
Visitors welcome at R30.00 per rider.
Please note this ride is not for beginners or green/yellow level riders. However we are prepared to entertain a yellow group for the fit yellow and not so fit red riders. You must have a degree of confidence that you can make 75km, i.e should have ridden close to that before.
All riders: please send your registrations for the ride to Tessa at ride@jmbc.org.za (provide contact cell numbers in case of problems) – please advise which group you want to ride in.
We will cap ride group size at 20 maximum so get your registrations in early. We will cut off entries on Wednesday the 6th of April 2016 so don’t leave it longer than that – you will be disappointed…
