Erm. where on the spruit is DHL? I know where the dirt jumps near the scout hall are and i know where the big bowl followed by a smallish tabletop is.

DHL in its original sense stands for 'Dalsey, Hillblom and Lynn'...
but in this case it's a killer jump line situated on the Spruit, behind the DHL depot in bryanston.
So we now say it stands for "Da Huge Line".
The depot is on Peter Place Road, just off willam nicol. Turn into the side that has the Merc, and Honda Garage. Park in the dead end.
Seems there'll be guys riding there from about 3ish this afternoon

Awesome!
Will also be my first time trying out the new morewood on them (if you don't count the 3 runs of jumps 1-4 that I did yesterday. Was a bit hesitant to hit the big ones without any ride buddies present).

haha Peach, you guys must stop feeding those jumps... just when I start progressing, they get bigger!
Still need to try 6-miler... but after seeing MissionS's bail on saturday... I was a bit spooked and only went as far as Sleven.
Good to hear that MissionS didn't break or rupture anything... Hope you have a speedy recovery dude!

Hey Patches, you didn't come through yesterday - we eventually did 6-miler. Seriously scary, but amazing to do.
