Headshot Posted December 8, 2016 Share They were on the radio the other day moaning about how they get less money from government but they still have to preserve the place and pay peeps. They were saying thats why none of the money goes to trail maintenance. Its a bit of a joke, major draw card for Cape Town is our natural beauty, brings in plenty dosh, but do you think the Government would spend some money to preserve it. Nope, they can create another form of tax. They get nearly R100 Million a year out of TMNP - (90 Bar alone t/o at Cape Point according to Gavin Bell to me 2 years ago) The amount they would have to contribute to the trails from activity permits is negligible in comparison but would do so much to win public support and ensure the trails are up to scratch. The battle on this front continues... (Deon) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porqui Posted December 8, 2016 Share I rode Cobra and it is very rideable - has lost some of the punch in its venom - many turned around before getting to its entrance as the grass is dense and tall but worth while. Loved the Bridle Path (Switchbacks) - some nice berms and jumps but pleeaasee don't drag the rear wheel round the berms they will be ruined as they need rain to compact them.

popcorn_skollie Posted December 8, 2016 Share We need a million times more than the little coming tomorrow. But every bit counts Should be more than we've seen in a while. 14 mm over 9 hours isn't heavy.But its no drizzle either. http://i.imgur.com/Kv5fa9G.jpg But I have noticed how rain and cloud cover forecasts has been exaggerated lately.Lets hope they got it right this time.

Eddy Gordo Posted December 8, 2016 Share Well, its supposed to rain near the end of next week as well, for a few days. Lets hope and pray this happens. I reckon a 3 to 5 day spell of solid rain will be great (Deon) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
