another year another absolute blast on and off the bike!

 

Noted a few subtle improvements in security (wrist band and manpower around campsites) which is always comforting.

 

trails were proper as expected and vibe was lekker with a few interesting neighbors on campsite (trance dude blasting tunes as 6am)  :blink:

 

kudos organisers, see you in 2019

was further away from the sokkie jol at the race village

 

True, but at least when you want to go to bed you can sleep in peace.  Although with the amount of beer I had on Saturday night I could have slept inside a trance party...

Man, what a rad weekend - again ! ....it just keeps getting better at Esels.

 

Trails remain some of the purest and proper trails around keeps one honest more so than not. Route marking is exceptional and with at least 6 motorbikes roaming the field  each day (night), one get the sense that the organisers have got the riders best interest at heart. 

 

The ablution / toilets are continuously being cleaned, and as noted, security measures at camp and a designated secure bike park, allows one to enjoy the festivities, without have to worry about safety. 

 

Lekker vibe, awesome trails, beautiful scenery,  great grub, Seattle Coffees (who knew me by first name, halfway through the weekend) - nee wat, put this event on repeat, it remains a highlight on the calendar ! 

 

Thanks to the organisers and all their partners for hosting another stunning Esels Festival, and taking such good care of us.
