Capricorn Posted October 28, 2009 Share very nice nolipoli. U broken her in yet? Just got back from my ride down that track LoveMe suggested. and he wasnt lying: that rockgarden is damn long. Lotsa loose ?bigass rocks that makes holding speed a sumbitch. Then i got lost at the bottom after passing the picnic area on the right. There were a couple of paths leading to what I thought was single track, but the one i chose ended being this wood slatted path with lotsa little steps in it and the drop surprised me by how low it was U gotta just hit it at speed to actually make it a drop. Will try to annotate the google earth pic he provided to give me detail, cos i completely blew past that first left for entry to the rockgarden. LOL. at least he wasnt wrong about that Getting distracted?The track, it's there somewhere The EndIt's pretty short with the rockgarden the only slow section. If you run on the perimeter of the rock garden, you can carry some decent speed. Fall there, and u gonna catch a lot of hurt Capricorn2009-10-28 02:12:32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't use Sram x7,x9 or x9 with shimano. Sram x7 - x0 uses a 1:1 ratio and Sram attack and Shimano use a 1:2. FYI: Microshift which Kiwi sells is 1:2 and is compatible with Shimano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveme.DH/FR Posted October 28, 2009 Share Hey Capricorn! Super stoked you got to ride the Table Mountain track! Yeah, ive gone down that wood slat path, and ALMOST eaten sh8 on the section where the wood drops and then raises again!The Actual track is just after the boom, the road dips a bit its about 3 or 4 metres after the boom. Also a fun rock garden that exits with little berm!Glad you enjoyed it! My best Part is the fast top section into the rock garden!!I want to ride so badly, but my bike is still on her back... waiting for wheel repair..ARRR! loveme.DH/FR2009-10-28 13:57:42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted October 28, 2009 Share yeah, i'm planning on doing it again soon as soon as these bloody 12hr nightshifts are done with I luv the little speed bumps every few meters on the top section. If you crank it hard enough, you get some nice air. But that damn rock garden. what's your best line through it? It's not technically hard, just damn hard to maintain speed. fork! I took a few chances pedalling when I thought the rocks werent big enough. Otherwise, a quick but fun ride. You should come over and do the Signal Hill Urban Assault course before it grows over. Me thinks u will like it just as much, if not more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveme.DH/FR Posted October 28, 2009 Share 12Hr Night shifts!? What do you do? Yea Im keen. Hope fully get paid soon and ill get my bike sorted out! Maybe try find a fork or frame too!
