Pretoria skills MTB park

[_Daemon_]

Only R20 entry, and super fun to ride. Lots of play potential. They even have a little braai and "chill in pool" area.

 

One of the longer north shores bridges.

Do you know how far out of town it is? Is there a bord or something one can see from the road?

erm...not really, maybe 10 mins from Menlyn mall

Basically you go out on gasrfontein road, eventually on your left side you will see a yellow car that's lifted on poles, being used as a advertisement for a panel beater or something, the very first tar road on your right after that is where the park is. road turns to gravel quite quickly, just follow the mtb signs from there.

Good to see that there are these types of facilities. It does not have to big to be enjoyed.

Hopefully the MTN Toyota guys will do something similar. These bridges are not too hectic with lots of fun factor. Also, what makes this small park more fun are the small jumps in between the berms and bridges. It makes the pump sections more challenging without being intimidating.

Nice one guys. I like the use of staves to build the platforms. The first picture, this looks too wide though. Maybe you need a few do or die sections to really test commitment.

[dirtrider]

If you want to test commitment then I suggest jumping of a bridge with your umbrella .
