Hahaha...na, not by the dam...Close to the botanical gardens. As you go over the train tracks you can go right (up the hill) or left (lower contour to Witfontein).

It is going from the top of the hill to the right down to the bottom contour :)

 

Lol....I still need to learn how to ride the one drop.

But the rest of the trail stuff so far is easily rideable, speed depending of course :)

So now what is the story? Are you coming? There is a spot available in my truck but you need to confirm today like. Also. I've organized accommodation but there are number issues. We can work around that.
