It seems there are two venues for the Gauteng Bikers:
Carousel in the north and Nasrec in the south.

Any interest?

Carousel sounds better to me... It took foooooreeeeeeeever to get to Nasrec last year!

by Daleen 11th November 2009, 14:34

I also vote for Carousel.

Not if everyone goes to Carousel Wink

But I see your point What a Face

I looked on the web site and am not too sure if the Carousel is not just another departure point

by daans 13th November 2009, 10:06

Can you please let us know if Carousel is a venue as it will be easier for us from limpopo to get there

by Admin 13th November 2009, 10:12

Pretty sure it is a venue:

Far North
Colennade Center; Zambesi Drive Pretoria Going North to Carousel Casino. 9:00

Will confirm with the organisers though.

Hi guys, I contacted them and this was the reply:
There are 2 end venues for the road rides around the ‘rand.

The one you refer to is for the Pta ride as they are not heading to Jhb this year thanks to the road construction and its inherent dangers for such large groups. The organisers in Pta have arranged a phenomenal end venue with tons of entertainment courtesy of the casino sponsorship.

There is another end venue for the offroaders in Jhb, just to add to the confusion. That’s known as dirt broncos’ in case you hear of it.

Regards
Graeme Cartwright

Carousel is one of the end venues, but unfortunately they don't have a lot of information on what is available or arranged at the venue.

Thanks Daleen!

As a club, perhaps any arrangements to join-up for the ride? What is the general view, JHB or Warmbaths?
I think that Warmbaths will be a more pleasant ride

+1 PCE

by GSlady 23rd November 2009, 09:53

Agree.
I vote for going north as well.
- Shall we gather at Atterbury Shell 7:30 and leave for Colonnade at 8:00?
Remember your toy!

Of course those staying in the south of Pretoria can go south if they so prefer,
but let's unite?
