This is the same venue as some of Epic Events Trail Blazer Trail rides.

Nick Reader of Epic Events has allowed us the use of many of his tracks, as well we have added some Enduro style single trail.

The original tracks are bulldozed flowing trails with bermed corners for Africa, no long boring road sections. This has been groomed to perfection by 700 plus trail riders at the last Trail ride.

The single trail is fresh hand cut un ridden trail, that will add the required Enduro flavour of tree roots, the odd log or two, & hopefully we will start to get some good rain to makes things a little interesting.

The soil is pumice based, so can withstand plenty of water, without things actually becoming unrideable.
