Dorpie Posted November 27, 2013 Share Hi Fellow Hubbers If any of you out there have done any riding on the Krugersdorp Hill of recently and have taken the chance to wind and navigate your way down "The Crevasse" http://app.strava.com/activities/97126567#2068253227 you will know what I'm talking about when I say this piece of trail "BLOWS YOUR MIND". "Hang on and keep your eyes fixed on whats coming up next" - kind of trail. I want to know if there are restrictions or if anyone knows what the limits are to trail building in those hills, this specific piece of trail can do with some work to make it slightly more ride-able instead of the stop start walk that it is. I really think that we can make this something spectacular for both the normal MTB riders as well as getting the DH guys (serious potential) involved. If anyone is keen to help work on the trail or knows who is building the trail on top of the hill, lets get chatting. dalem44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewald3 Posted November 27, 2013 Share K sweet, will go check it out this weekend. Is it safe to ride alone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalem44 Posted November 27, 2013 Share I would say it would be better to ride with someone as it is pretty dangerous. If you had to have a serious fall there, it may take days before anyone found you. As for safety in terms of theft, etc. We have never seen anyone up there but is a dodgy cave half way down where I presume vagrants may sleep Dorpie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorpie Posted December 9, 2013 Share K sweet, will go check it out this weekend. Is it safe to ride alone?? Have you managed to make a pass down the Crevasse? We went through there this weekend and its got some nice flowing technical sections, looks like the rain has been cleaning up the loose debris. I have made note of where we would need to do some trimming and where we can improve the trail so hopefully this december we can get our hands dirty.
