DieselnDust Posted March 30, 2019 Share It has always been that way. The only recent change is to have Vasbyte as down only. sorry but you must be mistaken as it hasn't always been that way. These rules seems to have made an appearance in the last few years.Most of the trails were shared dual way and riders got along quite happily. So whats changed that these "rules" have now come into play? I don't recall any mention of accidents involving riders going in opposite directions.

DieselnDust Posted March 30, 2019 Share Definition of pinner. 1 : a woman's cap with long lappets worn in the 17th and 18th centuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 31, 2019 Share Wait!! Hold the God damned phone. Did you actually refer to yourself as a pinner???????!???? It's a play on what Patrick calls all the people who want more technical trails. Hence the " ". I'm decidedly average and wouldn't call myself a pinner at all.

marko35s Posted March 31, 2019 Share Yep. All but Boulders and Faerie garden are down only.And Puff Adder is bi-directional too, tiny as it is.For many years the bi-directional trails were restricted to Fairy Garden, Your Roots, Vasbyt (Including the Bluegums section), Boulders and Puff Adder.The Snake Trails, DH line and Switchbacks have been single direction for a long time.Vasbyt was changed to down only for a few reasons, visibility (as you mentioned), the higher speeds being carried down there and, rather crucially, there is no way to exit now without crossing the DH line or climbing the berm at the top because the old exit route has been reclaimed and fenced of by the adjacent wine farm.

I get the weekly newsletter, but I have yet to find info with regards to builds on Tokai...and which direction their trails are designated. What has that to do with Tygerberg MTB?
