I wouldn't take new riders there.

I wouldn't take new riders there.Fair enough - I have been around twice, but need more practice and like I said, there are a few really hectic ones... would love to take you up on that offer sometime!

RockCoach Posted October 15, 2012 Share Fair enough - I have been around twice, but need more practice and like I said, there are a few really hectic ones... would love to take you up on that offer sometime! How many times did you have to get off to walk up or down? Would be better to find some more intermediate obstacles in the mean time to learn on and perfect. So lets let this group develop over the next couple of months and then we will go find some real trails... But I'm seriously impressed that you want to give the Fountains obstacles a go.

But I'm seriously impressed that you want to give the Fountains obstacles a go. http://1.1.1.1/bmi/cdn.bikehub.co.za/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.pngI did skills training with the XCO guys(for fun??) - they were super and a great help! Jeesh, I wont deny walking bits (that drop into the river is pretty scary!!) but I had FUN and somehow coped, hence wanting to go back and practice a bit with a few more experienced riders! Even if you gotta push, its still fun and an awesome track to ride. So I will definitely take you up on your offer!! http://1.1.1.4/bmi/cdn.bikehub.co.za/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png Edited October 15, 2012 by Mons100 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/121610-slow-fun-unfit-northern-farms-13-october-2012/page/22/#findComment-1813851 Share on other sites More sharing options...
