Craigwt Posted December 20, 2012 Share Ok, so I have been going out to the tygerberg trails quite a lot on my time off.. So much so that I decided to join the club. I was just wondering if I have to wait for my membership to be processed and my board collected before I can go ride? Would I maybe be able to print the order invoice/receipt and use that in the mean time, as a proof of membership? If not, how long would it take for the membership to be processed? I would hate to only receive it once my holiday is over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4u2nv Posted December 20, 2012 Share take your receipt with, or just keep it on your cellphone. The guys are always nice. You will just find the odd drol on the trail that will ask where your board is, They are easy to spot. they ride sleeveless shirts with booties and riser bars with bar ends. They can be seen braking on the singeltrack and pushing uphills on a more serious note, just ride, and watch out for snakes... loads of them recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the Tygerberg MTB Club affiliated to CSA? In anycase, you don't need to belong to club anymore to get a CSA license. If you're having problems while joining on CSA, send them a mail or phone them.

stringbean Posted December 20, 2012 Share To get a racing license you have to belong to a club and csa wont give license until your club gives permission.Problem is tygerberg is so big they not sure who is part of the club.

stringbean Posted December 20, 2012 Share CSA license is easy,got that in 1 day,if you doing nationals you need to get a full racing license and to get that you have to belong to a club.CSA will only give license once club has authorised it and there lies my problem.

tygerbergmtb Posted December 20, 2012 Share bike boards for 2013 are not ready yet due to a printing issue and we will post when they are available and online transactions are open.Yes you can ride with just your receipt at the moment.Yes, you can purchase 2012 membership at R200 each which gives you a bikeboard and access to all trails and green corridors. Nope you cannot ride green corridors without a bikeboard. If you are lucky, a drol will ask you where it is but if you are unlucky, you may encounter an irate and armed landowner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
