Yup agreed that this is an awesome ride but open, free flowing single track, suitable for roadies (like myself) is not what I would call technical.

If you go balls to the wall, and act like you dont have brakes it can actually become fairly "technical" :) but a nice trail for all to enjoy, will have to go scope out the updated trail.

It might also be that what I thought to be technical at first is not really until I did REAL technical stuff and improved my skills :D

But this trail does not fall into my technical category, even at full speed ;)
The difference between winning and losing is most often ... not quitting!

Actually, the only reason why I called it "technical" is that it is the most technical trails in my area. Jeep track in the Paarl mountain is really not all to technical :) But tokai sounds like fun! Never ridden there before. Should head that way soon! I suppose there is also various trails at tokai. What is the most technical one's?

Thx
