[Diepseun]

lucky bastards. nice track that.

 

 

The red "circled area is where the track is. you go along CJ Langenhoven out of George towards Oudshoorn. If you start going up the pass you have gone too far. Turn right into the forestry college. it's a smooth dirt road with speedbumps. The road will curve to the right. there's a parking area right there. you go throught the gate and the end of the track will be to your left.

 

 

 

Above is a zoom to the track location. Have fun.

Sorry for the "art work" and the profile of the track I drew is far from acurate. But you should be able to work it out.

[Diepseun]

so can one shuttle to the top?

[Diepseun]

hey DHK so when are you going? i might be riding on saturday?

[your_name_here]

not normally. It's something like Tokai. The local guys sometimes organize a shuttle day/fun race. Maybe you will get lucky and they will be doing that.

[Diepseun]

hey Murray. real soz for bailing on you, but i got caught up doing other stuff while looking for a tire. Just got back in now, and yes, i forgot my phone at home Group hug for make up?

 

is there a new section at my roots? come, give details...

[DownhillingKing]

Its cool. They built a little jump off DH2 so it flows a bit better from DH2 into DH3. The berm in DH3 has been smoothed out and all the leaves and soft sand has been liked swepped away. That trail into my roots is finishedand isnt all sandy but it doesnt have thatgap any more.

[Capricorn]
