This is going to be a blast. So far every year at Howick has been awesome. Last year was super gnarly. This year should be a little more chilled. Either way, sounds like it's going to be loads of fun.

Is anyone heading up from Dbn to Howick on Friday? I'm trying to find a lift to do some practice. Whole fam coming but can only leave later.

Keen to try my hand at the Karkloof round later this year. some pics and footage of the terrain would be most appreciated to see what I would be getting myself into!

Karkloof and Howick 2 different clubs, 2 different trail networks.. 2 different styles of trail and kinds of terrain

Hope all had a good time out on the Stages today. It was fast.. it was fun.. it was slippery in places and dry in others... it is Howick and we are very proud of our Club

Great weekend of racing with a record 174 entries in the 2019 Sappi Howick Enduro. Also featuring as the KZN Gravity Ensuro Series #1, the conditions were perfect for sideways sliding

Thank you to all who attended and we hope to see you back on the Howick Trails!

Dude! What a blast. Gavin and co did an excellent job this year. Cleaned the trails up really nice.

No serious injuries is a win. Stage 4 was the highlight of the day though, all those big boulders for drop offs were awesome!

 

Plus a decent amount of riders showed up as well. We're hoping for the same turnout this weekend at cascades.

This weekend is DH National #1 at Cascades.. not in Howick 

 

No Enduro but there is an Enduro bike class in the DH
