Hi Gents,

 

I've been busy helping out at Morninghill Country Club, (situated at 26 Hans Pirow Rd, Bruma) and have built the first pump track, and just about done with the pro pump track. Still to come is another looong pump/flow track, DJ lines and BMX track. Its loosely based on the Zurich Bike Park in Switzerland. From beginner to pro, there'll be a line for you - all connected back to a pump back to start mound. So we are looking at 3 Pump tracks, DJ with 3-4 lines, BMX track and flowing trails linking it all up - keeping options endless.

 

Gavin Trussler hooked me up with the job of getting this done, and I've been doing as much as I can in my spare time.

I now need the spruit rats, east rand vlei okes and all DJ guys to come through and give some input, feedback and dig time (I have TLB, sand, borehole water, labour, beers, food etc on site - beer and food for your account LoL). The pro pump track is pretty much done, but before I compact I'd like to see if its going to be rad as is, or if changes need to be made.

 

Please come through this Saturday - late morning to afternoon, and come ride, chat, drink, dig, don't complain, comment, whatever, just show up and come see what we are doing. Megan will be providing us with a braai and meat for all the guys who come help.

Bring bikes!!

There's a nice playground with child minders, a café, a bar, a gym, dance studio and beauty salon there, so bring kids and wives along too.

 

I'll keep you all posted on this one - its going to be one JHB's raddest parks with a the goal of night jams and craft beers not being too far away!  

 

Please guys, spread the word.

 

Thanks,

Just.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. Chris30# just a spade if you can, we have all the rest, I just think we may be short on spades.

Bring your bike first n foremost!

Would love to come, but limited to riding in the AM tomorrow.

Will you be doing the same next weekend?

The club will be open so you are welcome to come through. Its the Monster Energy Supercross at Loftus and I've got a McGrath replica CR250 that needs some showing off LoL! Please drop me a mail, I'll organise for hose etc to be there to water the track before you session.

So will bring my bike and spade. Do you have a shaded area close by for my wife to site?

Awesome! Yes, there is a café where she can sit and sip on a cocktail, overlooking the track. Megan is making cocktails tomorrow...what more could a wife want? :)
