Ride Groups: Green, yellow and red

Ratings - Technical : 5/10    Hills: 5/10   Distance : 20/30 Km  (10 or 14km laps) 
 
Starting From:  The Cycle Hub @ Rietvlei Zoo Farm  

Starting Time: 7h00 for 7h30  

Ride Description: Jeep track and mostly single track much of which is windy forest single track.  Big wow factor! There is a 10km lap for the green group so you can do 2 laps. More technical sections off the 10km loop for the faster groups giving about 14km per lap. Red could do 3 laps if they are feeling strong.  

Note:  We have to pay The Cycle Hub R20.00 per rider. JMBC members  will be subsidized by JMBC and non-members must pay the R20.00 to JMBC as well as the R30 JMBC visitor fee. There is a little restaurant next to The Cycle Hub so bring extra money for breakfast afterwards.  

Directions: Ride the N3 through Gilloolys interchange. Near Alberton, take the N12 westwards (to the right) . Then take the R59 Vereniging southwards (to the left) . Drive 5km and take the Swartkoppies offramp. Turn right across the highway and drive 3.4 km and turn right into Rietvlei Zoo Farm. Park near The Cycle Hub bike shop. That is where you pay your R10 (this is not the standard rate  charged by The Cycle Hub but an agreed rate between The Cycle Hub  and JMBC). No other payment is required to the zoo farm (if they ask, tell them you are riding).
