Tokai - FUBAR, Jonkers - FUBAR.  Oak Valley -  No Access due to Epic.  What now?

this is bigger than the loss of a few mountain biking trails. Yes, its sad that the time and money invested in these trails will never be recovered, but far more is at stake here right now.

 

Perhaps go try out Rheebokskloof or go ride Botlary Hills or some of the Tygerberg Mtb trails for a while?

Not Eden/G-Spot also..... :eek:

Lets wait on confirmation before we run away with this. 

I've been fearing it since yesterday.

Its too close to Jonkers not to be in potential danger.

I stay about 1 km from Rideinn and am taking supplies to them this afternoon. I am willing to buy supplies for anybody else that wants to contribute.

Ugh, the worst if it comes down that side. [emoji20] I can't see a thing from in town, too much smoke.
