It's less than a tube, please rather spend triple that on petrol money and stay away.

The funny thing is, the fee has increased by more than double over the past year, for what??

What are they doing to Tokai trails or the security with all that money?

Please tell me where your money is being spent because I have ridden in Tokai for over fourteen years and the only difference I can see over this time, is that most of the trees are cut down.

Ag dude, this flogging a dead horse thing is tired.

 

Yeah who knows what the money is spent on. Who cares anymore though. Go ride Stellies and drive 100k's to get there. Pay 30 bucks to ride and then shut the hell up. Try forget that your bike is way overpriced and all the parts got screwed at customs. That Red Bull you smashed on the way was overpriced too, and guess what, that road you took to get there some tender kicked back 60% to a trust fund. It's all corrupt. Who cares.

 

I was out at Tokai the other day and I can eat my words a bit. These boys have been wielding their spades in a big way. And hats off to them. The security issue is troublesome, but if it forces people to meet up in big groups to ride then maybe we'll all ride harder by being stoked.

 

But hey, dude, looks like you're in the UK, yet somehow "riding tokai for 14 years". Typical expat.

You clearly don't understand what I'm getting at.

I'm not having a go at the group that maintain the trails. They have done a really good job.

It's just typical Saffa mentality of paying and receiving nothing in return.

But hey, when I come on holiday with all my £'s I'm gonna be laughing.

If I choose to ride at Stellies, I don't mind paying the money as the trails, area and vibe are awesome!

ROFL. Shot, Nishiki... a lot of sweat (and rain) went into those trails. And there's still a lot more work to be done.

 

And lemme guess - some of the DH trails and then My Roots & Mamba? Yeah. That's primarily where the work has been done.

 

And now that you see what we're actually doing - you coming along on the 3rd? :-)

Ya I was well impressed. Loved the long DH next to the main road too much. Seriously okies well done there.

 

It still royally pisses me off that SANparks has passed the buck but hey. No point in caring anymore where the loot goes. It's like cracking a huge wet fart in a tornado, pointless.

 

Hey david, how is our situation here any different from the welfare state you live in? enjoy the curry plonker

Opportunities are huge here pal.

Europe is my oyster. I came here to work hard and play hard.
