Mitch21 Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 I might know who you are talking about. U talking about robert who is building up in contermanskloof? Brand new trails there, still in the early development, but it has some amazing potential. Meurant sais that its going to be the place to be. I went there, its quite cool, really well built, definately something to watch out for in the near future.
Capricorn Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 where's contermanskloof? I dont think Duane's buddy was talking about that place though. it's something closer to the soccer stadium.
Mitch21 Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Oooh, contermanskloof is in Durbanville hills. Its awesome, the trail descends down the highest hill in Dbv hills, the one with the huge radio tower on it.Â
Mitch21 Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Yes you can only one problem. U can only push up, and its about a days hike to get to the top haha, I was lucky enough to be able to shuttle. He said he is going to organise shuttles soon with a tractor if more than five guys come. But i would only go there when it is a bit more finished etc etc. Its still in its very early stages. But at the top = very flowy single track
Capricorn Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 i like flowy, and i wont mind the hike up. I'll take it as my exercise for that day Where do i park and go from? Directions appreciated.

Mitch21 Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 The red line marks how to get there. Follow visserhok rd off the n7. The there will be a turn off, which has a small sign saying contermanskloof mtb trails. Orange line marks the average route path that you have to take to get up. Enjoy my skillful art
Capricorn Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009  oh heck, that's gonna be a week's worth of exercise But I think i know that route. used to drive past there when i lived in Melkbosstrand.   btw: props for the mad PAINT skills Capricorn2009-12-25 16:59:11
