leet22 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Compared to Tokai how technical is the white route at Welvanpas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
covie Posted August 4, 2010 Share forgot all about welvanpas should go check it out this weekend me thinks. I just remember them saying theres one really dangerous corner on that trail that should be taken really slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaManiak Posted August 4, 2010 Share Depends where you ride in Tokai. It's maybe not as technical as Tokai's best (ie. riding up the Tokai switchbacks, or Cobra), but there are some long/fast (singletrack) downhills that Tokai doesnt have, and some sudden blind corners (into uphills), that'll get you if you don't know they're there. Overall, if you enjoy Tokai's singletrack, you'll enjoy this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leet22 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Thx Ninja. I love Tokai and have done a load of the ST there. I just wanted to make sure there was no serious DH type stuff at Welvanpas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaManiak Posted August 4, 2010 Share No, nothing like that. Now if my memory serves me correctly, you have about 3 or 4 tricky uphills after corners/ditches (at 0.5, 2 and 2.5 km etc), then the steepest downhill is at 6km, there are a couple of sneaky switchbacks on the descent starting at 8km, and then lots of fast downhill after 16km mark... Nothing too dropoffy or very loose either, trail is definately XC orientated. Take the first lap sloooooow, Take the second lap flat out :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatman Posted August 4, 2010 Share Welvanpas rocks!Some steep bits, some switchbacks but all on a superb trail surface. Riding the trail for the first time it's probably safer to go a little slower....If you don't arrive back at your car grinning from ear to ear then go ride the Yellow route too (bit of a climb to start off)You'll have to look far and wide to find such long,long stretches of flowing singletrack.I can't wait to go back there....

TitusTi Posted August 5, 2010 Share It's pretty easy riding, nothing technical really, just flowy single track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
