Bos Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Hellsend dirt compound downhill shuttle day....mixing it up with the big boys! Nico Vink.....Screenshot 2019-01-13 at 18.27.36.png  I was packed and ready to come when something came up and had to babysit the kids all day. I knew the big boys would be there and would have loved to just see the changes they made since I last went in Oct. Also, I have some unfinished business with that table in the pic up here. It looks like they have spent a lot of time on the DJ's aswell. Someone mentioned next month again.. I'll have to wait.  Did the flow-trail show signs of wear a tear by the end of the day?Â
Duane_Bosch Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Hellsend dirt compound downhill shuttle day....mixing it up with the big boys! Twas a fun day out. I was impressed with Sam Reynolds forgoing a run with the fast boys to do a run behind a little pikkie who wanted to do a run with him. Class Act. capediver, Arries87 and Bos 3

ChrisF Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 nice little wake up ride on the Monday morning. Started cycling from the first bridge at 5:45 ....   HKGK !! WHAT did I let myself in for ....   Just a photo break, promise I wanst knackered ... not just yet ....   By now it felt like I was in some self imposed jail ...   Went past the "Droe waterval" .... did stop .... but was too knackered to even think of taking a photo .... Got past the worst climb, climbed a bit more, and then it was time for a 5,3km DOWNHILL !!     ZERO pedling required all the way back to the car .... just a LOT of brakes ....    NO cars on the pass !! Saw one motorcycle. And on the way down met up with two more cyclists.   note to self .... got to sort out my snacks for these rides. More practice, and next time all the way to the top !!    Sepia, partydave, Pieterlab1 and 8 others 11

CAAD4 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 What is the distance and elevation? I did vasbyt there in the army, so I have a score to settle, which includes stopping to enjoy the view?

Its quite expensive for a day out, but If the guys keep adding trails and one gets to do 10 runs of awesome trails, I'm all for it.  I wonder if the plact the OTB happened is the same place as where I almost had a OTB last time. Just before the Table, next to the JD's. There was a funny lip, as if there use to be a jump that was removed or something? It just popped my back wheel up when I wasn't expecting it and I hit the table very out of control. I must say, I am still gaining confidence in jumping a FS bike. When I rode a jump bike I could boost to the moon, but Its very easy to get very nose heavy on a FS, and at speed, its sh*t scary. I'll be running a Full face next time.
