Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 22, 2011 Share So pull in early on the GT and we can have a ride before digging. That way we can work and play in one day. Cap you really need to come dig.

Manchillz Posted September 22, 2011 Share Hey surfer, sorry we did not see you at the last XC track repair, but rest assured there will be more in the very near future. Just so it is out there, all the trails are undergoing repair/redesign.. we obviously have to start with the most urgent projects first and any inspection of the current state of the DH, will offer more understanding than I can put in words. PS, don't be surprised when you do join in, to find that you are rubbing shoulders with downhillers repairing the XC track.. Nice bunch of guys they are!! - It is one sport after all. Cheers. FINALLY, see u on sat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Deon) Posted September 23, 2011 Share More DH trail maintenance ? That's two in a row now! Will help out when XC trails are eventually upgraded. Hey surfer, I knew I'd seen you other post somewhere before. You were drooling over the Reign. I HAVE to let you know, if you were ever thinking of getting one of these, then you really should be putting your time in for good karma on the trails now, coz with that bike you can ride ALL the trails, DH incl. So we see you at 12? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 24, 2011 Share Okay guys, I will be the first to apologise for not making it today. Some local nazis (Germs) decided to take residence in my system, and I was hucking up phlegm all night and day. Suffice to say that I didn't get much sleep last night, and I don't know how tonight is going to pan out. Please feel free to give me a snotklap next time you see me, in lieu of the useless excuse that I have given. I can only hope that there were enough peeps to do some good work there.

And i will be the second to apologise for missing the build day. Was at work in stellenbosch till 5 pm. Will try be there next time. All good guys. 1st day done.. Essentially this is being regarded as a new track, so we have cut the trail back to the foundation. You will see it is looking very 'sterile' but don't worry, 'virility' is on its way. There will be a day for planning. I suggest anyone with a bit of flexibility in their day job, who is interested in DH, join us to walk the course and listen/suggest features you would like to be riding. Remember though, this is not destined to be a huck-fest but rather provide the maximum enjoyment of an otherwise very straight line downhill. A few corners need to be included, but to not steal any speed, I am going to suggest putting these higher up where there is still enough slope to regain momentum without much effort.
