Oxter Posted June 24, 2015 Share I have, with dire consequences..... The grass was long, it was my first ride at the park, and I had no idea it was a gap. I thought it was a steep down, so entering I shook off a lot of speed, rolled down but when hit the bottom the bike stopped instantly, smashing my crotch into the back of the seat. I somehow managed to still pull up, and ride up the other side. stopped, got off my bike to inspect the damage. No more ride, as I limped back to the car. This was the result: Eina.jpg Did not take a photograph of my nether regions, but it was bruised...lots Keen to give it a go again....Steel balls you've got to do that to a saddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicNacDH Posted July 25, 2015 Share Maybe because Heia Safari has been sold, and the land use is unclear? Red and Yellow is not on Heia's Property? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocknRolla Posted July 26, 2015 Share Was there this morning. Land has been sold, currently, hero adventures is in apparent dispute with the new landowner over the use of the trails. This is what we were told at the gate. Later, my wife spoke to a lady in the office who explained that the new landowner is an avid cyclist, more trails are in the pipeline, but it seems he wishes to operate the trails, and do the further development without hero adventures as the trail operator.

L.T.G Posted July 27, 2015 Share he wishes to operate the trails, and do the further development without hero adventures as the trail operator.How convenient...... All that hard work building those trails just to have it taken away from you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronH Posted July 27, 2015 Share If that is so, hero should charge for every hour of work and resource that has been put into the trail.. He may reconsider. Or hero will source back enough money to build elsewhere. But there are probably so many legal loops and rings to jump through at the moment.

Bonus Posted July 27, 2015 Share Sounds like someone didn't have a proper (long term) contract in place? If the land has been sold without provision being made for things to continue "as is" then the new owner can do what they like with their purchase. The world of verbal agreements can be a tricky one.

The world of verbal agreements can be a tricky one.For Hero's sake, I hope they did have the correct contracting in place... otherwise the new landowner may just have secured a very sweet deal... whether he can ethically use those trails for commercial purposes may be a different story, and a very sore point for Hero. But we are just speculating here... i just hope they can come to a fair agreement bearing in mind that Hero have really put so much effort and good work into it. It would be such a pity for someone else to unfairly gain from their excellent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorpie Posted July 27, 2015 Share Last I heard from speaking to Hero Owners is that there is a 10 year land lease in place with all necessary contracting, the owner is just a bit of a stickler and giving them uphill for minor issues but they will come out on top and continue to create and maintain the trails at Heia.
