There are four entrances/exits to the Nothern part of the forest. In the past I've only entered the forest from one particular entrance, the other three were my exits, simply because the ride always started from Oudebosch padstal and its easier to find your way coming from one direction only.
Today I would attempt to enter the forest from a diferrent route. Now we know what happens. When you go in reverse you don't recognise any markers, plus the farmer has now cultivated the land around the next kloof entrance.
After scrambling around a bit I find the top of the road into the kloof... 50 meters futher its gone :eek7: There's a heavily overgrown twee spoor leading to the left down the mountain, that looks like its been made by a quad. Its steep but looks to go in the right direction. Does not look very familiar but I decide to give it a go and see where it takes us. Flaymo amd Hotwire follows.
It was a mistake. We should have walked it first. 100 m down, around a corner, the path disappears. Turn around and make our way up that hill, back to the path again. Took us the best part of an hour. Again, we lack fotographic evidance as our efforts were concentrated on getting our bikes turn and back up that mountain.
1. Warrefok is die pad... en my bike
2. After wrestling the bikes back up we were knackered. Flatmo coming up the hill, but the pic does not do it justice.
3. Getting our breaths back
