The most fantastic trail ever, took me back to my childhood days, just flying through the forest, pulling your ears back like a rabbit, "no brakes", no thinking, just smiles all the way!!

This trail is the reason I RIDE, cause I want to go back and ride it again and again ;-) 

Thanx to everyone involved building such a dream trail !! 

Much appreciated and enjoyed !!

SO i am guessing it starts at the Country Club and also that it is clearly marked for people that does not know that part that well?

This past weekend a few of the A-Z trails were closed due to felling of tree's affected by the fires earlier in the year. I doubt they will be cleared by the 13th ?

yes we were the about a month ago, 2-3 trails affected by felling, went back again on Saturday and was a little disappointed as there were another 2-3 of the A-Z trails affected.

 

Still probably 1 of the best places to ride!

We were there on Saturday. A-C is rideable, but very washed away in places. D-F has been logged, and it looks like Blikkiesdrift has been logged as well. We took the Rocky Garden to bypass blikkiesdrift, but the bridge at the bottom is dead. Trail is rideable from O onwards, but very washed away in a lot of places with sand all over the show. My riding partner went OTB into a huge hole in one of the puddles where it has been washed away.

 

The trail builders will have to make a different plan wrt the drainage strategy here, and it remains to be seen whether they will do any maintenance until just before W2W.
