    Steilte Trails

    Hey Omega man, how long would it take to walk from the gate/wherever I'm allowed to park, to the top of the trails ? Also old school Toyota Landcruiser >>

    Keen to meetup on Saturday ? I think the "riding schedule" is mostly ad-hoc.

    Where is Mark Gordons trail park ? Maybe it's good that there aren't going to be man riders, can walk the trails up and take my time.

    Steilte Trails

    Hey Omega man, I'm a noob, can I come smash myself this weekend at Steilte ? bike is finally sorted, I have membership, just need my card from Jan. Was thinking Saturday and or Sunday morning, anyone else going then ? I don't want to go alone, new to DH, I want to make friends too
  5. hey there, I was wondering, I am going to have to get a new wheel set soon for my DH rig, I am new to the sport and have no idea what setup to get, I also don't want to break the bank, does not need to be top of the line, just a good wheel. Another thing, I have a morewood Izimu, putting out feelers to see if anyone has a large moreewood izimu frame (the front triangle) 60cm top tube length (mine is 57cm). WIlling to swap or buy one if anyone has a spare.

    Steilte Trails

    Hey man, thanks for the links, I'm proudly South African, although I wouldn't mind living overseas to get some more seasons , I skii'd in France(La'Plagne),Coldorado(Winterpark) and Vancouver(Whistler). I'm always itching to go skiing again. dammit. Will anyone be at Steilte on Saturday?, I just want to come around and check whats potting, what to expect etc. Regarding my bike, it's 160mm at the back, and 180mm in the front AFAIK. I can peddle up hill without coughing up too much blood

    Steilte Trails

    Hey guys ! I am new to DH. The only experience I have in DH is free style skiing. Which I can't do in SA very well. I stay in Somerset West, and have heard that Steilte is the place to be. Just got a 2nd hand DH rocky mountain, still need to get protection. I like going as fast as possible so falls are inevitable. Whats the best way to get to Steilte ? I am going to sign up for membership. Sorry if I appear to be ignorant, I am not very clued up on all the trails, ethics etc. Also, I am willing to volunteer and help maintain trails if that's a thing. Peace & Safe riding Jono
