sawystertrance Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 my 3 most challenging and yet rewarding sections in the climb to the top: 1: 3rd last corner on the BlueGums divert near Vasbyt - that rocky, rooty 90 degree corner with a stump and fallen log in the middle of the corner. Got it eventually2: That section described above - not challenging per se, but you had to hit it right and it felt great when you did3: Last corner on Boulders. That rooty section from hell. Eventually managed to find the right speed and approach to it and clear it properly...This one?

sawystertrance Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 same... and that one rocky climb - you HAD to get the right line, or you were toast. Also had to gun it, like the silvermine road used to be. Loved that trail, and I'd started mapping "enduro" sections for my own race against myself and riding buddies.... Sniff... This section?
(Deon) Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 This section?The "V" in the rock.. At least that will still be there.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 This one?yeah, although it looks a lot different in this pic. coming up... tight turn, lift the front, power down and pop the back up and over cos the tyres aren't going to bite on those there roots... At the right speed, it's pretty easy. Just that by the time I got up there I was generally poked...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 This section?Yep. Just gotta hit it at the right place.
(Deon) Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Mine's sexier than yours..Yeah, he's from CT.. you can just see it.
sawystertrance Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Yeah, he's from CT.. you can just see it.Ah, I was thinking he was a she.
(Deon) Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Ah, I was thinking he was a she. This is CT. I can see how you made that mistake.
sawystertrance Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 That little dip into the stream bed before the end going down..
marko35s Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 That little dip into the stream bed before the end going down..I was talking about that exact spot with Deon yesterday. Damn I miss that place.

AuctionLamb Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 amazing hoe almal gemoan het voor Tokia afgebrand het, nou mis almal die rides en sal enige tyd opgeskeep sit met hardlopers, downhillers, newbies, lack of maintenance op die roete.
