\u00a0<\/strong>Over 700 enthusiastic young cyclists paddled around the newly constructed 7.8KM mountain bike park during the Ekurhuleni-leg of the Gauteng Schools Mountain Bike League held at Boksburg Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The track is magnificently laid with gravel and obstacles to optimise the mountain biking experience.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

It will afford scores of mountain bikers and the community at large an opportunity to be able to practice and compete at the park.<\/p>\n

An excited Abi Braun, from Ho\u00ebrskool Kempton Park\u2019s junior men\u2019s team (Kempies MTB), was confident that his school team will take the lead in all categories.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cOur school has the best record in mountain biking and the track looks good, we have prepared well for this competition and I am sure we will walk away with good results,\u201d said Abi.<\/p>\n

The mountain bike park is now officially open to the public and can be used by making a booking with the booking clerk at the Boksburg Customer Care Centre.<\/p>\n
