PROMOTION


I would like to introduce ourselves to your Club.

We have recently bought the old hornbill restaurant in the Hemel and Aarde Village. After some renovation it is now open. On Saterdays and Sundays we are serving a "Epic bikers breakfast" together with a bike wash station in our yard. This directly targeting the local cyclist and visitors that are riding the Hemel and Aarde route.

Please keep this in mind when you are riding again and spread the word among the fellow riders.

We would also like to be involved or sponsor a price in the upcoming fun ride the club are planning.

For more info please contact me directly on my cell, 082 940 3119

Best regards and please pop in for a "gu" to go breakfast.

Die Bestuur Hermanus Fietsryklub

Die afgelope Sondag het ek die moed bymekaar geskraap om met my fiets saam met die ‘vinnige fietsrymanne’ van ons dorp, n stadige ‘clubride’ te doen. Ek het gedink dat die manne nooit as te nimmer stadig kon ry nie, en wou eers 15min voor hulle wegtrek.

Ek is egter verseker dat ek nie bekommerd hoef te wees nie almal gaan bymekaar bly. Met my bergfiets en tekkies spring ek toe saam met hulle weg.

Die ondervinding was ongelooflik lekker, veral al die raad wat ek as n ‘novice’ van die ouens gekry het, het my teen die einde laat voel dat ek ook nou 'n bietjie meer weet van fietsry. Halfpad het ons gerus en lekker koffie en muffins geniet, dit gee jou weer krag en moed vir die terugtog.

Ek wil dus elkeen wat 'n fiets en helmet besit, aanraai om gerus die eerste Sondag van elke maand saam te ry. Dit is werklik n gawe, ondersteunende klomp ouens wat bereid is om hul kennis en ondervinding met ons te deel.

Nogmaals baie dankie, dit is werklik 'n voorreg om deel te wees van so 'n klub!!!

Fietsrygroete.

Greyton MTB Classic

The Greyton MTB Classic was held on Saturday 16 June. The event formed part of their annual Greyton Winter Festival. With the all new exciting loop on the other side of Greyton that was added this year, participants had to conquer a steep hill called “Poison Hill”!!!. And now we all knew why they called it the challenge, only to realise what stunning views to behold!. Going Back down the mountain, over the Ghobos river, and then we had to recover for what event organisers called the “Purgatory”, a nice switch-back climb that saw us through a big technical section. This section of the 40 km route is filled with hills and some steep technical downhill single track. In the last 10 kilometers the route lead us through the quiet back road of Greyton past the quaint historical village of Genadendal back to Greyton.
