Brian Fantana Posted March 10, 2014 Share Wish I could get down to do this. Have good friends and family in PE/JBay. Don't worry, if all goes well, there will definitely be another one this year. Hayterdale trails have such nice downhill sections that I can easily add another 1.8km stage with about 240m descent. But the aim of this event is to give local riders a nice introduction to Enduro. After this event we'll look at making the special stages a bit faster and tougher, real Enduro style. Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Robodog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fantana Posted March 12, 2014 Share Special Stage 1 - Holgat This video was done by Mountain Events. On the video it does not look that fast, but I can assure you that this stage is veeerrrryyyy fast. It has one climb of about 50m in the middle, and after that it gets fast again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMP219UUW4A Edited March 12, 2014 by Brian Fantana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fantana Posted March 12, 2014 Share Thanks, that would be helpful. I was there on Sunday but the weather wasn't playing nice. Yip and when we were there on Saturday, the trails were nice and dry. The weather forecast for the weekend looks good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fantana Posted March 12, 2014 Share Special Stage 3 - Zorr's Roller Coaster This video was done by Mountain Events. It will give you a nice idea of how the trail flows. It is a lot faster when you are on the trial than what it looks like on the video. There are a few very short uphills on this stage, but they can all be powered through if you carry your momentum nicely. It ends with some very steep jeep track where you can really let it fly.

Brian Fantana Posted March 12, 2014 Share Special Stages 2 and 4 will remain a surprise. They are easier than 1 and 3, and they flow nicely, so there will not be any nasty surprises. See you guys there. Entries are rolling in nicely: http://www.endurope.evnt.co.za/entries-received/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
