marko35s Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 I was gonna retort with something along the lines of you'll be the first child I throw, but... One does not simply throw the national Japanese ju jitsu coach...Given my slow ascent speeds throwing wouldnt really be needed...
MoreTrails Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 The DH track I am talking abou we built around 1999 the last section was thenused as a hiking trail and now being ridden again. The saasveld single track is fun but to little altitude. The tierkop idea I like especially if it is as rockyas it was back then, Yebo, Saasveld is a bit XC... but the area under the TV tower is prime! You should have long chats with Deviate. He is the man on trail building mission in George - get up there and sample the fruits is all i can say!I think Tierkop would scare the cr@p out of okes, then again maybe it was so hair raising cause we were bombing that hill on rigid Nishiki's back in the day....

The tierkop idea I like especially if it is as rockyas it was back then, ahhh youre talking about acdc (bottom section of old 99 downhill) yeah, i lengthened that trail in December and added a Skinny - probably the only one in SA?? have you ridden it since? i have been planning a route in my head and im busy lengthening another trail but still only 4min max! then theres an awesome GEM called 'Rocky Balboa' which is a 2.5km super tech rocky trail that is 'secret' and PROPER enduro!! i mean , hiking out of a revine . its just a pity im a one man island out here in George...... 2 day enduro would be one day in george and 1 day at the gardenroute trail park ! now that would be TRUE CLASS!! best to tether with #WPGE and (master plan) make it part of a 'western province series' with an overall winner and all! cats out of the bag i guess.....
Matchstix Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 I feel like I should know you? We think alike! Should meet up coming down mid june

Guest Omega Man Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Mid June...road trip to scope some natural trail goodness and hit up that park everyone been talking aboutThere's a group of us going up over the June 16 long weekend. Well worth the trip in my opinion. Mark Gordon builds some damn good trail. And Rob the land owner is a super nice guy.
Guest Omega Man Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Sounds like a plan....Omega. Lets chat some...Sweet. My name is Duane. Grey Intense Tracer or Black Turner DHR. Short. Big mouth. bigger phens. Always going on about France.
Matchstix Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 We should somehow get a group and arrange to meet up from there, harkerville is also a must

Guest Omega Man Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Damn.... Sounds so close but still 30 days away. Counting the sleeps!I'm hoping to bum a demo bike again. I don't think my review of the Spec was definitive enough.
needleshy Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 I'm driving down to P.E in mid June as well, wouldn't mind stopping over for a day or 2 and blazing some trails on the way. Could i join up with the group?
MoreTrails Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 For sure Needleshy. Omega Duane Man - ah the bliss of an incognito profile, this is Savage speaking! See you out on the trails! Hanko, maybe you should make a plan to join the rekki to these potential hotspots....!
