MtbBarbie Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Any particular reason as such? Owners of Teak giving them a hard time! Decided to move premises to make for a friendlier environment for us all!
Gerhardc Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 So what about Nissan at Teak Place....will that still go ahead???
Pusher Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 So what about Nissan at Teak Place....will that still go ahead???Yes. Only closing at the end of the month!
Danger Dassie Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Owners of Teak giving them a hard time! Decided to move premises to make for a friendlier environment for us all! Ah that's a shame. All those trails and the dedication to building some really nice singletrack, a lot of which was just starting to wear in nicely and mature. Never really had an issue there, although folk in the office and some at the restaurant could be a surly bunch!Guys at the gate are always awesome though and really friendly, which knowing how much of a dick some riders can be, was impressive.Hope we aren't losing access to the trails across the road as well!
Dirtracker Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 (edited) I actually saw the sign for the first time last Sunday. If you are coming along Villa de Bois (Moreleta Park PTA) towards the Farm Staal, cross over Atterbury and go all the way into the dip, around and straight through the traffic circle and at the next right turn only stop street, turn left on the tar until you hit dirt. It is about 1 to 2 kms up the road on your right. Had a look from outside but you cannot really see anything. I saw a sign board at the previously mentioned stop street which caught my eye. Be very interested to find out more. Sorry this refers to Hedianga Farm Edited July 12, 2011 by Dirtracker
Kwashi Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 Well I've been to teak 3 times in the past month, the reason for closing is indeed the land owners, the main guy incharge of the MTBing has put out forms for anyone to put there details on, he said he'd use the info to contact us as to the new trails in the area... As for the Nissan, I was informed that majority of the riding will be outside the existing Teak trails, they will lead us toward the Cradle Restraunt and the other side of the road. Perhaps they using the funding of the race to build the new trails of the new venue...
THE HULK Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) awesome... the last safe place to ride.unless im wrong but teak is the only place i have not heard anyone getting jacked or attempted.please correct me if i am wrong?Rietvlei is also a pretty awesome place,, Edited July 13, 2011 by THE HULK
Lukep Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Does anyone have a telephone number for teak, I want to ride there on Saturday but dont want to go if it is going to be closed.
Pusher Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) I heard a comment that it might not close because the Nissan Trail series held there last weekend was very successful.Phone number:011 461-6486/7 - 082 600 0819http://www.teakplace.co.za/I will be interested to hear what they say when you phone them.

Paulst12 Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 did they say what will become of the place? Its a great venue and a huge loss to MTB!!
Nettie R Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 I heard that some landowners in die Cradle and Muldersdrift areas have a tough time staying safe against crime and theft. It's only natural to protect and close off any further entry to your property if this is the case.
