matthieup Posted July 22, 2018 Share I've updated all the maps ages ago but as far as I know the website hasn't been updated yet. The signs at the trail heads are current AFAIKSorry for my ignorance as i'm not sure how you make the map, but could it be expected to a gpx? So one can plot in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeityRaid Posted October 3, 2018 Share What time do these trails close? Getting my weekend warrior back on and would be great to fit in a ride after work during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_sa Posted October 3, 2018 Share Normal trails close at sunset. The traverse closes at 17:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Stewart Posted October 3, 2018 Share Trail access: Sunrise to Sunset ONLY.This means you stay off the trail until the sun has risen, and you get off the trail before it as set again. Easy. Traverse, also be off by 17:30.As for Traverse and the various other corridors, ONLY for (paid up) Tygerberg MTB members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deefish Posted October 3, 2018 Share Does anybody perhaps have an updated route map for Meerendal? Since the recent changes they've made I never quite know if I'm finishing my ride on the right route. I've also come across a lot more people asking for directions lately which makes me believe I'm not the only one that's a little confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest a 2nd loop of the upper portions and skip the lower parts in the interim. The trail entrance is as per the attached pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnclePolli Posted November 5, 2018 Share Was just posted on the club FB page WDH (wat de hel) - if you cant climb it walk it...  On Sunday I was contacted by one of our landowners, with a complaint of riders climbing over a fence on his farm, to avoid doing a certain part (climb) of the trail - the fence is damaged as a result, but more than that, folk this is just bad manners - so unless you are Danny MacAskill who can front-flip a fence, keep your (lazy) bottom in the saddle and pedal dammit .....or get an E-Bike :-) Jokes aside, ladies and gents, PLEASE recognize that we are always just guests on someone else's property. #peaceout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnclePolli Posted November 5, 2018 Share I'm curious, what part of the trail is this?  Was wondering the same thing, but they didn't specify. Also complaints of Gel packet on spyker so not a good weekend for TBMC. shocking. https://www.facebook.com/groups/tygerbergmtb/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnclePolli Posted November 5, 2018 Share maybe that climb out of hoogekraal back to faircape. cause you climb out and then decent down the fence again before turning right to that section next to the tar road. but that is purely speculation at this point.

Scared the living daylights out of me. Yesterday back on Hoogekraal, already paranoid, encountered another (small) snake as I entered Hoogekraal from the fair cape side and then another bigger one crossing the singletrack on the Cobra climb. That was it... made a beeline for the exit and went and ride Bloemendal (I would have climbed the fence if it meant getting out of there quicker.. ) Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
