Anyone riding Karkloof on 23rd and 24th Dec

[Griffin]

HI Guys...hope that you all had a good time at Karkloof. I was out there yesterday and the trails are great..a little slippery here and there from the rain but majority easily ridable.

 

Just a word of advise. The official trail head is Karkloof Club. Please do not go out and start riding from other areas without reporting at Karkloof Club first and paying the trail fee/completing the Sappi Indemnity. We also discourage riders shuttling out on the routes because we have strict rules about transporting people/bikes on the back of vehicles and people parking in restricted areas (e.g. the airfield/timber loading zones etc). Riders are running the risk of getting us banned from the Sappi forests due to irresponsible behaviour.

 

We can really understand the lure of riding the Karkloof Trails as Enduro routes, but Rene's Rumble (and other sections) are actually part of the marked routes and there will be other riders out on them. Please be aware of this. There are no dedicated Enduro Trails at the moment, but we are working on this and will hopefully have something sorted soon. You are more than welcome to ride out from the trail head (the club) and use sections of the routes for Enduro riding, but please do not shuttle up and down, unless is part of a official and recognised event.
