On a less happy note  :eek:  :thumbdown:  :cursing:

 

Someone has stolen all the permanent signage at the end of Home Jerome (Home Jerome exits on a grass section nest to the Curries Post Road). This includes the large Sappi sign as well as all the info signs. If anyone saw anything or has any info on this please contact us urgently at info@howickmountainbiking.co.za

Rode the route yesterday.

 

Nice and straight forward, routes are already well marked and the liason stages are not too bad.

 

Nothing super technical and will be a good day out for anyone willing to give it a try, better have your pedalling legs on :devil:

 

Saw Gavin out with his blower clearing the way. Thanks!

 

Took us about 3.5 hours with no rushing and not racing any of the stages.

 

If it's wet than you had better hold on, the trails (especially Stage 3) under the Pine trees are super slippery :eek:

Hey Robbo... good seeing you out there. Thanks for the feedback!

 

I am planning on doing a little more marking on the liaison stages just so that there is no confusion. The race stages are all marked though so those should be fine. I have also been marking the 40k route with BLUE arrows.. so DONT follow those! The Enduro arrows are BLACK!. The 40k route is closed off with bunting so you shouldnt go wrong.. 

 

Nothing super technical but that was the aim from the start.. to make it fun and friendly but with little challenges here and there. Enduro, as with any other kind of MTB, is a progression :)
