Flowta Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 The question was what can you bring that helps?You do want to help don't you?Sorry, edited my reply. I'm not on the committee. Previously my suggestions have been met with disdain by some of the committee members.
Flowta Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Edit - you edit quickly ..We are working on a lot and if it bears fruit it will be well worth the wait.Sorry, was an afterthought. Didn't think you'd reply that quickly
marko35s Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Sorry, edited my reply. I'm not on the committee. Previously my suggestions have been met with disdain by some of the committee members.Not every idea will work - but that said the committee in its current form is starting to dig in and get a lot of work done.
marko35s Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Sorry, was an afterthought. Didn't think you'd reply that quicklyI'm bored [emoji1] To put it in perspective I have put more hours into the committee work over the last month than I have at my actual work. My wife is getting very ratty with me over the lack of an income and I may well appear at a traffic light near you with a begging bowl and a well practiced hungry look. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

dirtypot Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Where's that topic about the meeting tomorrow at The Range? Is that still happening? What time?
Flowta Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Apparently SANParks are meeting on 5 May to give feedback on when the mountain will open. I haven't seen any info on the TokaiMTB FB page or twitter This from the Trail and Tar newsletter "SANPARKS TOKAI meeting!!! PLEASE folks, ensure that you make the effort to attend the meeting on 5th May at 19:30 at The Range, in Tokai. Sanparks will be giving feedback on when the mountain will re open, and we need to be there to show our displeasure as to how badly this whole thing has been handled. If you are unhappy, make sure that you are there to have you voice heard!!!" I see that TokaiMTB has posted it now Notice for Table Mountain National Park talk: 5 May, 7:30pm, The Range."The Zwaanswyk Association of Property Owners would like to extend an invitation to Tokai residents [and others affected by reserve closures] to attend a talk by Gavin Bell of SANParks on the 5th May at 7.30pm at The Range. He will be talking about the closure of the park, rehabilitation plans and possible land-slides that could happen as a result of all the tree clearances.There will be a cash bar and it is hoped that people can stay after the talk and socialize together." Where's that topic about the meeting tomorrow at The Range? Is that still happening? What time? FYI dirtypot 1
DJR Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Apples = Oranges? Nope! Same Park, same obstacles? Just 1 little difference between Tokai and the front of Table Mountain - pine plantations vs no pine plantations. Therefore, in Tokai you have to deal with Cape Pine, logging, rehabilitation of a rare fynbos habitat. All of which is not an issue on the front of the mountain. Currently also, Tokai now has to deal with the aftermath of the devastating fire, again, not an obstacle in the North. Ok, those are a few differences! Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

Please note that this is a talk by Gavin Bell, the guy in charge of Table Mountain National Park, as a way of sharing information with residents living on the borders of the area affected by the recent fires. It will be required of those attending, to actually LISTEN first to what the man has to say. Further note that the meeting is not primarily about mountain biking, so please listen to other users and their concerns also. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Eddy Gordo Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 as Far as I understand it is a talk about how the neighborhood is gonna be affected. The Zwaanswyk Association of Property Owners would like to extend an invitation to Tokai residents to attend a talk by Gavin Bell of SANparks on the 5th May at 7.30pm at The Range.He will be talking about the closure of the park, rehabilitation plans and possible land-slides that could happen as a result of all the tree clearances. http://tncw.org.za/events.aspx?aid=223 Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

Looks very much like he wants the riders to do his bidding. Anyway, unless you are part o the ZAPO assoc, or an invited TRA member, the meeting is not open to you to derail.. See TnT FB page for update from the ZAPO board. (Edit: Sorry Dave, speaking generally not meaning you personally.) Edited May 4, 2015 by ...
