Local MTB Route - Belmont Valley/Manley Flats Loop

[stockcarracer]

Lovely 2-3hr MTB loop ride from Grahamstown. Largely dirt road, about 500m of tar (take care). About 50km. No services. Low traffic. Strangely easier to ride clockwise than counter clockwise.

Please take care coming back along the tar near the loxion -- I nearly got taken out by a car.
