porqui Posted June 17, 2014 Share Don't know if I should advertise it but two of us rode down Tokai bridle path yesterday and really enjoyed it. It should be known as the new VASBYT because that is what it is - test of skill and tenacity. (yes I did get off in places - not that skilled)Yes its rutted and obstacles and saplings on the path and some of the switchbacks suck wheels. If more use it it might justify repairing it but that would require YOUR labour. Go and enjoy it preferably not on your own as that path is not oft used. edit:spelling Edited June 20, 2014 by porqui Dan Dob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted June 17, 2014 Share didn't realize it was opened again. Should be good to hit that again. it's been a long while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Gordo Posted June 17, 2014 Share Nice, the last time I was up there found the same. The ruts just a bit too much though. However how about as an idea maybe on some places piles of sand or somthing can be left to fill in the ruts so that when we do pass we can close them.

Alouette3 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Yip, rode it with Porqui yesterday and it was serious fun. Actually a lot better than I expected. It was my favorite trail, and I'm glad its back to being mostly ride able, though not easy by any means. Think we need to chat to the powers that be and do a build day up there one of these days to clean up a couple sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko35s Posted June 17, 2014 Share Wasn't the worry up there that it might have more slope slip and carry someone with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alouette3 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Wasn't the worry up there that it might have more slope slip and carry someone with it? The main dodgy sections slipped last year, all the dirt blocked some areas of the trail badly, but some of it has now cleared up. On the positive side, it has provided material to do some repairs with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJR Posted June 17, 2014 Share That is the location of the next CBC consumption build day. I heard, and if it is as usual the 1st Saturday of July, then I'm going to be away again. I'm starting to feel bad for missing so many build days in a row. How about I pay for the labour of 1 guy? But my beer still goes to Mayhem!

We've all got jobs and lives and wives etc. Everyone should be thankful to you for every build you've attended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
