Hairy Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Welvenpas would be a great venue with a long decent from the top of the full monty
PhilipV Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 There's 1 at the moment but Karl is in the process of buying a single cab 4x4. We're building a structure that will allow people to sit on the back of my truck comfortably.We won't be using dakine pickup pads. We're using trailers. Those pads ruin your bike if you aren't VERY careful. Especailly on a rough uplift road. I'm really keen to see what you are going to use for the shuttle trailer.Reason is that one of the local schools have applied for budget to build a bike trailer for their MTB team, and I might help them with the build, or at least with the concept. .

PhilipV Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Dude I've got a mate. 2 infact that can help you out. Send me a PM fior their deetsShot, if it is approved we'll probably come swing by. I heard you used Christo's trailer this weekend, that setup works lekker.
Guest Omega Man Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Shot, if it is approved we'll probably come swing by. I heard you used Christo's trailer this weekend, that setup works lekker. Ja. The original trailer we were going to use was seconded to some xc race. I can't even remember which one. Christo's trailer is a great setup for dh bikes but for xc bike's there are other and probably better options. The problem with dh bikes is you can't twist the bars. with xc you can. I'll send you a pm of what i'm talking about.
Guest Omega Man Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Hey all. We'll be running Shuttles for the December down period for all you guys and gals who are keen to get a little gravity in your lives. The venue's are to be confirmed but expect Steilte, Paarl, TM, Marlmsbury and possibly Contermans. Dates are as follows. 23rd December 26th December27th December28th December29th December30th December31st December 2nd Jan3rd Jan4th Jan With the added possibility of a few extras between the 5th and 11th of Jan. The only other way you'll get more gravity is if you come to France with us in July.
Guest Omega Man Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 SA-Alpine-Addiction.co.za and County Ford all prepped for this weekend's uplift day at Steilte.A big thanks to County Ford for the use of the frankly ridiculous Ford Ranger Wilktrak. That thing is sick. http://www.countyfordgoodwood.co.za/ http://SA-Alpine-Addiction.co.za
Guest Omega Man Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 A Huge thanks to County Ford for the loan of the Ridiculously Amazing Ford Ranger Wildtrak.
Guest Omega Man Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Hey all. Just an update on our proposed shuttle days for December. 23rd December. Steilte26th December. Steilte27th December. Paarl28th December. Paarl29th December. Steilte30th December. Steile31st December. Malmsbury2nd Jan. Malmsbury3rd Jan. Steilte4th Jan. Steilte.If you are keen to join you know what to do. R100 per shuttle day in the account below please. We'll have the trailer sorted (or replaced) before then. Please remember your shuttle fee's don't cover trail access. The folks from A-Line will be in town around the same time and will be joining us on a few of the days so you'll be able to test out some SICK Banshee bikes whilst smashing out runs. I can't think of anything better than getting a shuttled to the top of the hill and smashing a run where you can jump 12 safe tables in a row. Can you?
