Hey Dude, Sux that your runs weren't timed. Travelling that far and still be in good spirits shows that you really just enjoy the sport, so well done mate. I rode here mid January and ran into the curator, he was there with his teenage daughters who were on whipper snippers clearing the trails. There is just no support for them out there, the resort will happily take the clients on race weekends but as far as i know do not help with maintaining the park. There is so much potential in this place, however, as you saw, its over run and closed. Nice vid mate and great positive outlook, good luck next round dude.
100% man they don’t have the volunteers or support out there sadly. But they do such a good job getting the trails as ready as they do which is awesome. Like I said I’m not upset with the crew there, it was just a oversite on their behalf and to be fair the bands should work as they’re supposed too but oh well. It is what it is and I still got a great ride in 👌🤘
Thank you mate
Yep. It is a LOT of work to keep the place in shape.
I've done a few dig/maintenance days out there. Just gets so overgrown, so quickly. They're trying to get the gear together to do things a bit more sustainably. Snip, clear, and spray so that it doesn't come back so fast.
That'll leave more man hours for things like rebuilding the wooden berm on Nemesis. That thing is going to axe someone, if it hasn't already.
All that said, they still really need more hands on deck. Just like most trail care groups, really.
@@Pogo69 yeah man it’s really a huge job. Would need heaps more hands to keep it going strong. Hopefully the resort put money into it.
@@JohnnyThe_G
Probably not going to happen, with the current owner. He has been trying to sell up for a while now, with a LOT of potential sales falling through at the last hurdle.
Very much doubt he'll put any money into something that he wants to offload. I do hope that right buyer will eventually come along and restore the whole place to its former glory, and with it, give the MTB club a helping hand.
@@Pogo69 yeah man I’ve seen that place for sale. That sucks. Hoping for the best 👌
You've never heard of the Gunfight at the OK Corral? Grab your popcorn. Nice ride btw.
Haha I’m unsure how old the movie is 😅
Thank you 🤘🤘
That's such a bummer about the timer. And wow that wall rides seen better days. What memory card are you using? If they arent quick enough they can have issues.
I have the extreme one, got the next one recommended for go pro but it could be the issue, might go get a new one 👌
@@JohnnyThe_G I've been running the extreme pro without an issue. But who knows. Sometimes my GoPro freezes and I have to pull out the battery.
@@cutlaps that happens to me way to often! such a pain man
That sucks about the timing dude… it happens aaaaalllllll the time 🤙
It’s the worst hey! 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Yeah especially since it’s so far away!
Pity you go pro didn’t turn out either or else you could’ve got your times off there just to see how you went!
@@midlifesendermtb2178 yeah man everything went shit 😂 I was taking it easy anyways I got a big trip coming up so probably for the best 😂
Dude bummer about the day ... But I do have to say I was there the week prior and nemasis was nearly un rideable due to Lantana everywhere , could barely see the trail 😳. Sux them having limited volunteers hey .
Yeah man they don’t have any volunteers that’s for sure! This is why I’m not upset with them haha
Bit of a stinker the timing bands didn’t work dude. But at least you got a couple of chill sighting laps for when it’s showtime. Great attitude dude!
Still had a good time
Thank you mate 🤘
Did u at least get a refund? This seems to happen all the time, reason why I’m. It going to bother this race season
Yeah I got free entry to the next round. I’m not taking scenic rim races serious anyways, but it’s good practice
Bummer mate. Some days technology is not your friend.
Nope. That’s for sure 😂
I call conspiracy…they new you were going to whoop everybody’s arse. Good choice not to ride the wall did I see some holes in it, that’s pretty poor maintenance when you know you’ve got an event happening.
😂😂😂 yeah it’s rough for them, they only have 3 volunteers I think and the resort doesn’t give much support by the sounds of these. They also have so many events coming up, I bet they are really under the pump
@@JohnnyThe_G that’s pretty poor form from the resort, if they are holding these events they should at least make an effort. Given how popular MTB is your only one new set of trails opening to loosing riders to it. Shame about your Go Pro
@@kevinmartin225 yeah man that’s for sure. They would have made a killing on that weekend, over 140 riders and surely majority stayed at the resort.
Yeah I’ll have to really keep an eye on it now
@@JohnnyThe_G better make sure it’s good to go for the fox super flow your doing in a few weeks. Sadly the day you fly out I’m on afternoon shift so won’t see you, and the same on your return
@@kevinmartin225 yeah man I’ll need to get a 10 I reckon
Damn that’s all good mate 👍
