  1. Car key lost on snakes or lizard or bad yet or the climbs up. Modern keyless fob type key
  2. Thought it might be a useful thread to start to get people together who want to purchase group permits / Activity Cards Level 3 for TMNP. Post if you're looking and please update if you've got / not interested any longer. For logistics sake it might be an idea to give a rough area where you stay and if you have another people who are looking or how many people you are looking for to complete an application.
  3. I'm looking at replacing my current MTB tyres (OEM Bontrager XR3, 29" x 2.3"), as the back is almost worn out and I'm struggling on corners with the front especially over loose rocks. Its my first time doing so and and apart from all the recent research I've done I have no prior knowledge. I do 90% of my riding on the DH and Snake trails in Tokai CPT which are Enduro and Trail trails respectively, Tokai has lots of hard-packed ground, with rock gardens, roots and loose small rocks. For what is worth, I'm looking at running a 2.6" front and 2.4" rear combo, I'm primarily looking at using Maxxis tyres for simplicity and in terms of availability, I'm looking at using the Exo + casing and the 3C Maxx Terra rubber compound on both front and rear, as they seem best suited towards my needs! Where I need assistance is choosing the correct tyre combo, the forerunner from my research and taking into account my local terrain appears to be a Assegai up front and a Minion DHR II at the rear. Another decent combo appears to be running the DHR up front and either a Aggressor or Dissector at the rear. I can't seem to find any stock of the Minion DHF hence not including it in any of the above combos. I'm looking for feedback from anyone using any of the above combos or tyres, with a specific focus on grip especially on corners, rolling resistance (speed) and durability, especially as I will be using the bike to climb up trails!

  9. Hi guys I rode Tokai today for the first time and my freaking GoPro broke off the handlebar mount...I am almost certain it was on the first few bits of singletrack as you go through the gate and which is on your left...So if anyone finds it please let me know It is the original Black Edition in the waterproof case and has a 32 GB SD card in it (which should have some climbing vids on if you watch them). Any help much appreciated. Thanks, Cuan
  10. This month we we offer more love to the Switchback trail (Bridal path). We reached the halfway point in July and need to tackle the rest which is by far the worst. This needs to be a playful trail again and to get it back to the playfulness lost to erosion, we need your help! Tokai parking at 9am (long trek up, don't miss the lift) Bring gloves, water, a tool of your choice.. See you there!
  11. Hi Guys, Just wanted to let all you Tokai forest riders know there's a new mountain bike coffee hang out in Steenberg Village. We found it the other day (its only been open since 11th July but awesome stop off place on cycle route to and from the forest.
  12. I found a pair of Specialized gloves at the bike wash at the Tokai parking today. If they're yours, let me know. Otherwise, does SANParks have a trustworthy lost and found person I can hand them to?
  13. This weekend saw a few very near nasty crashes involving riders going down the ONLY LEGAL bike trails in Tokai and groups of joggers jogging up the MTB trails. We pay, they don't. They have full FREE use of the entire mountain trail in Tokai as well as any mountain in Cape Town. We are restricted to 2 trails.... (DH and Snakes) Someone is going to get hurt soon. And as usual no one seems to know whats going on or what to do about it... so for now, if you downhill, prepare for some lekker human cushions on the way down... (Hint: boobies make good air bags. ) PS, going over a jump is apparently considered reckless riding?????????
  14. Hi Guys With the Mast Challenge taking place on Saturday, what will Tokai be like? Will sections be cordoned off etc?
  15. My father in law came off on Monday up on one of the single tracks in tokai. Firstly thank you to the couple who phoned us off my dads phone. (hope you are reading this). You were a great help. Then the guy with the specialized stumpjumper expert HT (he lives in Tokai). Thank you for staying with him till I got there and stayed on and rode with me down. Just some news on my dad (crazy fearless 60 year old). He broke his neck, two of the vertebrae in his lower neck broke, one broke badly and VERY almost paralyzed him as seen on CT scan..... He is being operated on tomorrow morning. They are fusing the vertebrae that are affected. THANK YOU for your help in a huge way!. Hope to see you out there again. Rolf
