Yes to all of the above. Braai facilities is the only thing I am doubtful about but I'm sure you can just make a clearing anywhere.

Also looks like we are going to have perfect weather for the weekend. Bit of rain on Wednesday to settle the dust and cool conditions on Saturday. Night race is going to be a blast this year.

Was Vrydag daar op die trails...ride lyk sweet vir vanjaar! Nuwe stuk singletrack af by redbull hill is smooth en flowing en vrek vinnig! Dankie Deon vir die ander element daar as net rowwe klippe! En die bruggies oor die drade. Flippen cool. Kon net gestick het met die ou resep en nogsteeds sukses gewees het maar tog verbeter jy dit so baie! Dankie dankie dankie!

[Buchu]

Ons het lekker baie werk in die roetes gesit. Paaie is lekker oopgekap en baie paaie is verbreed om die bottelnekke uit te skakel. Die weer en die roetes is perfek vir die naweek, ons kort nou net genoeg mense.

Profile of the 65km somewhere? Entered but just want to gauge how much red wine I can drink Friday evening........

[Ceres]

Just rode the deadman walking route (to the top most point past the pipeline)with Buchu this evening man that down hill is wicked. Deon Malherbe has added a few more twist and turns so the down hill is now over 10 km long of just single track.

 

Here is also the profile from last years race nasty climb to get to the top but that down hill makes it all worth while.
