So you saying the spruit HAS technical stuff?

 

No, it's not technical the way most XC riders do it. Lots of awesome hidden tech bits that you have to go look for.

SHHHH. The Spruit Fairy is currently working on more single track. SHHHH

Word of warning to the Modders riders...there is a newly dug trench on the last single track before the old forest.

 

Not quite sure how to explain it but it's the curvy single track parallel to the dual track on the fence line just before you turn left and head down'n'up towards the old forrest section (the one where they removed the alien species).

 

The trench is straight but the curvy single track winds across it 3 or 4 times. There were no warnings or tape across the trench when I rode there last night. It's quite a surprise when you're hauling arse... Take it easy along there and prepare your bunny hop early captain.

Yup. Not sure of the opening time but you need to be out by 6pm. Times are on a board on the toll booth where you pay to enter.

Better not to train on your "weakdays" rather train when you are feeling stronger again
