Event Name: Vori-Berg MTB Race
When: 11 August 2012
Where: Cycad Nursery, 2km East of previous venue on R513, Gauteng
Category: MTB

The next Vori-Berg is on the 11th August.

There have been a couple of changes to our event.

Firstly we have moved our starting venue to the Cycad Nursery which is 2Km east of the existing Lemlou Security Grounds on the R513. As the name says you will now be able to leave either mommy or daddy to browse the nursery to get your garden looking great again after the winter months.

Secondly we will no longer ride along the R513 to start and finish the race, this was becoming just to dangerous for us and we need to look at the sfatey of the participants.

Great news is that we have added a new section of track which should add 5km to the route, this is some lovely singletrack with a few sharp climbs.

All info is still available on www.waterpoint.co.za

I will be riding the route and should have some profiles up later next week.

Look forward to seeing all of you again for a great race.

Cheers

Clive

60 Km New Route

[Team SL]

Guy's,

I need your input on the route that i use for the 60km event.

This was allways a double lap of the 30 km
The new route is a distance of 35km although Google earth is giving it as 33Km.

For the long route i can either still keep it a 2 lap race or cut a 5km section out of the route.

What do you guy's want to race.



Cheers

The longer the better. Just advertise it as the actual distance so riders know what they are in for.

so what was the final verdict in the end is the long route 60 or 70km and is it a single or double lap race?

and I hope the weather turns for the better, have entered the long route already so will be there wind, rain or snow
