News bot Posted November 11, 2016 Share SANParks, the Table Mountain Mountain Bike (TMMTB) Forum, the Pedal Power Association and SANBI have over the past year been revising the 2002 Mountain Biking Environmental Management Programme (EMP) for the Table Mountain National Park (TMNP). An inclusive stakeholder process was undertaken and a draft of the revised EMP was released for public comment in April 2016.Click here to view the article Bloukrans, Duane_Bosch and Capricorn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headshot Posted November 11, 2016 Share Yes, its taken years but its here at last. It still leaves us with Tokai closed and TMNP still not prepared to plow money back into the trails. The fight continues... (Deon), Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Bloukrans 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 11, 2016 Share in english - 20 days till we ride tokai again?!We're trying to get clarification on this, or at least get them to open Tokai at the same time. For the moment not, just referring to the other now legal trails. Edited November 11, 2016 by Myles Mayhew T-Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtypot Posted November 11, 2016 Share Will there be a new set of maps showing new and allowed trails or is it as per the EMP proposal? Dan Dob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dob Posted November 11, 2016 Share Absolutely massive news! Thank you, thank you thank you to all the people behind the scenes that paid for and facilitated this process! Now to all cyclists-please don't become your own worst enemy. Let us do this right so that we don't lose this privilege or give anyone ANY ammunition against us! Get your permit now, be courteous (remember most hikers will not realise that we are allowed on some trails now so please be polite in educating them), report suspicious activity to TMNP/SAPS (who knows the best number to phone?), do NOT go and race down trails-have fun but realise how scary fast mtbers seem to walkers/ the elderly. Slow down well before any other users, greet them (maybe pack a flask of tea to share with them?! Show them we are outside for the same love of nature as them! Just be nice! michaelbiker, Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, NixM and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
