nigelhicks Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Hey Guys seeing as the old thread died ... here is a redo I will be posting videos of the trails so that you guys will be able to practice before hand
nigelhicks Posted May 27, 2013 Author Posted May 27, 2013 ok so ... a link to the video of Stage 1 shot by myself and Dave Drummond. We were not pushing it as we just wanted to give a good idea of the stage .... Stage 1 starts at the top of Gravity Dice and then turns right onto the upper bizhub, then once it has rejoined Gravity it goes down over the table tops and then straight down the hill to the bottom bridge across the river. DR ◣◢, Sidewinder., Chro Mo and 6 others 9

Looks excellent. Dave seems to be that Yeti...

DR ◣◢ Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Why not...Entered. Will there be free practise on the Friday?
nigelhicks Posted May 28, 2013 Author Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) Trails are part of the Giga Gorge trail network and are open ALL the time! ... So feel free to practice anytime ... you will just have to pay your entry fee to get into the park. PLEASE NOTE!!!!! STAGE 3 ....... (once the video is up you will have a better idea) .... This will be closed for Practice until the Sunday of the WEEKEND before and then the DAY before ......... this is due to it actually being an "up" trail that we will be running the wrong way! ... so to avoid any head on collisions this trail will remain closed for practice except for those 2 days.

Nofearnofun Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Why not...Entered. Will there be free practise on the Friday? Might have to pay the R40 entrance.
Nofearnofun Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Anyone with a Microbus or similar keen on going? Im sure there will be enough JHB guys keen on this event to fill all the seats and save some $$$ on the trip.
DR ◣◢ Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Might have to pay the R40 entrance. Not a problem. Free practice means that there are no marshals on the course and the course is a free-for-all to practice on.
Nofearnofun Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Not a problem. Free practice means that there are no marshals on the course and the course is a free-for-all to practice on. (Facepalm)! DR ◣◢ 1
DR ◣◢ Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 (Facepalm)! Make a plan. I need more JHB guys to push up the hills with.
Super_mil Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Make a plan. I need more JHB guys to push up the hills with. I guess most of the JHB guys are heading to Mankele as it's the same weekend. RockCoach 1
DR ◣◢ Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I guess most of the JHB guys are heading to Mankele as it's the same weekend. Mankele was part of the plan. Unfortunately not happening this year. However I will be in the KZN area for a week during that time
Nofearnofun Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Make a plan. I need more JHB guys to push up the hills with. Those hills at Giba are violent! but worth every drop of blood (from your eyes and ears) and sweet! Im sure there will atleast be enough of us to fill a car with a bike rack DR ◣◢ 1
