its fun...but its a single track x country trail. the roots are the major cause of spills and laughter! currently its abt 2hrs ride to complete a loop. once the route has been more settled,u can come join us 4 a ride.

took a little time in the evening to lay some stones in this 2 stream help make the crossing fun. soft mud on both side of the embankment lead to this course of action. thanks to xrh for his effort in laying the stones out.  the nite view of how it looks like.  and the fun part!  i went off into the stream - 3 times out of 5 attempts. its more technical than wat it looks here on the pic!

some pics of tomato trail.   the crossing looks ez but its the approach dat makes it difficult.  see why helmets r important ! esp when doing a x/c mtb ride. V.L sure is glad she got a full face mtb helmet.

Our youngest rider in Tomato Trail... Tyler aka Little Kuick !! guess tomato trail muz be all overgrown by now... will clear the trail again & start cycling once the defence system is done by the engineer....which will be soon. Ken 81 has express interest in the nite off road cycling 2 while he was here reviewing the external defence system.

part of tomato trail has been cleared! overgrown is a understatement....mother nature was working overtime. we are now stuck by the mimosas.....once it was juz a flat,muddy trail. now its shoulder lenght(in some places) with mimosas. we have gotten some equipment to clear it but the orange van had to stuck at the workshop( a taxi driver made sure of that!  )so till we get some transport sorted 4 the equip....tomato trail is on hold.  will put some pics up here on the new improved sections(dexter's hill n 2nd stream) dat has been cleared already Edited by airtime, 14 Aug 2011, 01:08.
