Yes, unfortunately the office only opens at 7:30.... I was there at 6:30... Most gates were open except for one, and the only time I saw someone the entire ride was at that gate, the guy asked me to help him put the code on the padlock because his eyes were not so good in the dark. I thought I’d pay at the exit because I was following a strava route that someone else did recently and I saw you could rejoin the road on the other side... thing is that exit has a fence and nobody operates it so you have to jump over it.

 

I wasn’t very comfortable riding through some of the rock gardens flat out (I had 3x30mins at 270w that day) knowing that no-one in the world knew I was there, and half of the time I had no signal.

 

I definitely want to do it again, but next time I would prefer not to be all alone, because it is safer but also because it is an experience worth sharing !

And with style ! For me both times I landed a bit on the rear wheel, guess I so wanted to make it I pulled on the bars a little too much ????

Wynand did a great job on this trail, i reckon if you can that speed through those berms, and with little pull you should be able to land that gap.

 

Since the closure of Jonkershoek (where i was every weekend) i've gone to Banhoek quite a bit now as well. On Saturday we did the traverse on top 3 times, at it really makes for a great ride.
