Elgin Valley Outride with WLCC

🚵‍♀️Elgin Valley & Grabouw Forest Trails

📍 Location: Trail’s End, Elgin Valley
📅 Date: Saturday, 17 May 2025
⏰ Start Time: 07:30 AM

We’re heading into the heart of winter riding season with our Outride Series—and there’s no better place than the Elgin Valley and Grabouw Forest Trails! 🍎🌲

With Table Mountain Sandstone forming the base of the forest trails, these routes drain and compact beautifully, making them some of the best winter riding terrain in the country. In fact, many of our fastest Strava times are set here in winter! 💨⏱️

🗺️ Ride Options:

• 🔁 Short Route – ~20km (flowy, forested, family-friendly)

• 🔁 Medium Route – ~35km (great mix of forest & vineyard singletrack)

• 🔁 Long Route – ~48km (showcases the very best of Grabouw & Oak Valley)

Optional water point surprise after 20km for medium and long routes. You’ll have to ride to find out 😉

🧦 Ride Perks:

🎁 FREE WLCC socks for the first 20 club members who arrive in their Wine Lands Cycling Club kit.
☕ Coffee & breakfast at Trail’s End before the ride.
🍓 Smoothie stop at Elgin Railway Market mid-ride.
🍽️ Post-ride lunch options at either The Table at Oak Valley or back at the Elgin Railway Market with wine tasting nearby.
