Just became dizzy from looking at the photos.Awesome playground :thumleft:
 
Yis, that looks so cool, you are indeed spoilt for training grounds  :thumleft:

Tell me a bit more about the Roof Bronze class please Edgy? How does it work, do you still do the same route as the Gold but just shorter? Do they still take you up those mothering huge bounder strewn climbs? How many days is it?

The Roof has been a dream of mine since childhood but it just seems so unattainable since they've gone all "extreme enduro" on it  :'( It's still on my bucket list though.

Yip its the same boulder strewn route, only 50% for the Bronze though,Silver is 75% and obviously Gold is 100%
 
Havent been plastic biking for so long, all my old tracks look like this!

:thumleft: pretty steep tracks. Easier to keep the front wheel on the ground on your 230, compared to a 300 I reckon?
 
Nice pics Edgy ! Im sure we will have opened those paths up and a lot more by the end of the year!
 
Lekker Edgy....where is the video footage?  :peepwall: :pot:
 
I'll emigrate.. :p

Jokes aside, was near Hankey for the junior nationals....the Eastern Cape is a "to do"
