Riding all over Johannesburg this long weekend
Friday was a wash out – rain, rain and more rain – we called it quits after an hour. It was a trade off between missing the mileage or risking flu. Saturday took us from Rosebank to Northern Farms, around Northern Farms and back – about 100km’s and just over 6 hours. Where we could we stayed off road. I went on to do a kind of duathlon which involved 2 hours of shopping with my wife. Mike recons that was worth at least another 1.5km’s. I think more.
Today we went hill hunting, we clocked Munro Drive, Westcliff ridge, Melville Koppies, Alberts Farm and Northcliff water tower – about 45km’s or so. Tomorrow we plan to ride to Hartebeespoort Dam where we get collected (or not) – either way looking to do another 100km’s or so.
The pictures were captured en route over the past 3 days.




nice looking ride. I did not recognise it. Is that really JHB?! Glad to see the rain passed.
