STEAM DREAMS FOR THE BOTANICAL GARDENS
The ideal to offer miniature steam train rides for children in the Garden route Botanical Gardens is being seriously pursued by Joe Magill and Robbie Matthews, two avid steam enthusiasts who live in George.

With all the technical experience at their fingertips, they are the right people for carrying the project forward.

Joe owns a miniature passenger carrying train that currently offers train trips in Knysna, and Robbie is building his third locomotive, one that will be used at the gardens if and when permission is granted to do so.

Their plan was enthusiastically received by the management of the botanical gardens and will be presented for all the necessary further permission.

They intendsiting it on the northern side of the gardens(on the mountain side).

ROCK PEDAL CLASSIC

Mountainbikers in the Southern Cape, both resident and visiting, will have the opportunity to apply their skills and to experience the breathtaking beauty of mountains, rivers and open Karoo when the inaugural Rockpedal Classic takes place on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 December.
