here is the official reply from the bike park guys... Yes of course. I know there is much discussion, not only in <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Cape Town, but around the world. People in Whistler have been asking Greg Minnaar, and the Adidas officials we have out her recently about the parks progress. In GermanyoN> there are a group of riders who keep e-mailing me wanting to book the chalets already J Ha ha quite good I suppose.<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> No it?s not going to be Jonkers ? they are quite close to anything and everything. We have our sights set on Lourensford and have been in negotiations with the Wiese family for a few months now. It looks extremely promising, but we still have a month or 2 of impact studies and assessments to carry out. Lourensford are very open to our development and we will be hugely successful once our forces unit. As mentioned in the forum, The Wiese family have what it takes to make this the biggest MTB park in the Southern Hemisphere and better than most in Europe. We have the whole world contacting us and coming on board, from German ski-lift technicians and bike park builders, to top pro-riders and local riders and plenty of big company sponsors. One thing is for sure, it?s happening, and fast, we are looking at starting construction of the trails in the next 2 months and we have a few international festivals bound for our shores in 2008. Keep in touch. Craig Marshall FREERIDE-CAPE Robotech2007-09-18 00:51:40
