365 days ... what a year it has been ....

1 May 2020 was my FIRST ride on the blue beast, under the strict time and distance curfews of the time.

LOVED the bike from the first ride.

Today its birthday was celebrated by inducting a friend to the world of MTB at Bloemendal.

What a nice venue, what a nice bunch of people on the trails.

 

 

 

Our new friend was a "bit shocked" to see what the guys got up to at Veer Factor ....

At Kuilvoergat things got a bit more interesting .... the pro's were doing their thing on the right side line, grabbing LOTS of air.

Back to The Missing Link....this time with some suspension and real tyres! This may be "contour" trail but, man, what a workout....its actually a beast! Its either rocky, loose marbles or flat corners and icy fine gravel...nothing in between......spectacular scenery is a given and with the new lower level and its connectors, it's a real workout!

A word of caution, there are some surprise A line choices on the lower Lobotomy Line that could end in tears...ride with caution...

Oh and both upper and lower lines are closed well short of the original end at the battery above Llandudno...signs accompanied by big felled trees across the trail are clear and concise, ie don't be a dwees and ignore them, turn around and enjoy the ride back!
