(Deon) Posted July 1, 2011 Share i might be riding in the morning and guys from morzine dont think they will like it needs to me dh1 with extra boost guys sunday take a trip to contermans and take a trip down the track see you peeps tmw moring 8 ish Ok, here is my suggestion. Get a group of guys who are as keen as you. Get on Google earth and look around the greater Cape Town area, spotting well elevated areas, tree cover optional. Then, when you have found a suitable spot, not too far from home, find out who the land belongs to. Approach them with the idea of progressing your sport and get their backing to build the type of track you are looking for... it will not happen on World heritage soil in a National Park. Your last comment is based on your opinion that others will not like it. Thanks for that.. it is not even finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy hardtail Posted July 1, 2011 Share If you want more people to get into dh then the fast smooth flowing track is perfect. The kind of track that leaves you laughing all the way down. Thats the best fun ever. Fast flowing corners , jumps that you can whip or lay flat, maybe a few pump /manual bumps etc. Rock gardens are good on a race track. Separate the men from the kids. But i also know that only two events a year can happen in tokai and at the moment thats the cape epic and the mast race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want straight down the hill, go and get permission. I'll build it personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get it? The track is a divert for a super gnarly section that we struggled to keep open! But you only understand what you see.. and if you don't see it you throw up your arms??!! I'm going home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leet22 Posted July 1, 2011 Share its going to me a fun smooth fast track yes witch i like but we need to try get somthing thats harderU not going to get a pure DH track on SAN PARKS there is to much risk with guys riding and getting hurt. Even though a indemnity is signed it will be bad for them if someone got seriously hurt etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
