Hi there,

Maverick recommended that I post my questions here.

I am on a work trip to Jo'Burg until September and will be staying in town every other weekend or more.

Wonder if you can offer some advice on the following:
1. General tourist things to do over a weekend. The project I am on is pretty intense, so won't be able to sneak out early on Fridays. So I only have Saturday and Sunday (inc .. travel time), and possibly only one day out of the two on some weekends.

2. Biking things. I ride a GS back home.
Where can I hire a bike and where can I go to ride it? (Doesn't have to be restricted to Jo'burg .. I hear Cape Town is really nice)
I see BMW SA has one day off road courses, are these any good?
(note: I was at Ranburg Waterfront on saturday and saw quite a few bikes inc a yellow GS :D)

3. Is it worth renting a car? It seems that if you have no wheels (2 or 4), you are pretty much stuck in Jo'burg. Is it easy to find your way round the city?

Thanks in advance.

Tom
