Months ago I attended the launch of the EcoMobility World Festival and even though I rarely travel into Sandton, I was captivated by the initiative. Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that streets in the Sandton CBD will be closed to vehicles for the month of October - with a ring road that is open to buses and taxis.
Before even walking out of the launch function I knew I'd be creating an open Metrogaine.
It's time to play in the streets again. Streets that are for people, not vehicles.
The area is smaller (800m2) than usual and there is no points allocation (checkpoints are equal). There are 23 checkpoints and you can locate them in any order.
