The (no)Goat

I am curious of anyone has ever ridden this trail at Devonbosch? 

Today was the 3rd time I pitch there only to be told by security to hit the road - the trail is closed.
Reason? Rain.
When? Sometime last week. 
Flippen heck might have to be careful of dew. 😋

Devonbosch - Life Unlimited 🤔 as long as there was/is/will be no rain.

Ja I have done a couple of laps. Others I know have also done multiple laps.

Wow, very lucky riders. It seems you have to time it just right in the middle of a drought.

It's a freakin awesome trail, I've done it a few times now. Roughly 7km's long with some great flow lines and jumps.

However, it's closed in winter. The entire trail is built around a brick field so it's all clay. You cannot ride there when it's even slightly wet because you will destroy both the trail and your bike. I chatted to the developer and he mentioned that after every winter the trail will be cleaned up and prepped for the summer months.

Good thing that its well communicated that it's closed for winter.

I spoke with the security guy this morning. According to him the goat still closed. Apparently they  are currently doing maintenance on the trail.
