Not to bash CountryTax... they really do a great job.

But... I can take you to Rhino Park or Maraisburg What a Face

One day thing, it's close, beer afterwards and I'll do it for free Smile

PS. I'm not a senior instructor Razz

I thought I posted something but obviously did not click the send button!

Ok, I was thinking that our training will be done over 2 days (not necessarily consecutive). Or alternatively a morning/afternoon session Smile

It would be good to start off the training at Rhino Park - all the sand is pretty much in one place and there are some different kinds to practice on.

Then we should go to Maraisburg to apply our learning! This will be the part of Maraisburg we didn't get to ride on the February club ride, but not so hardcore that it will feel like a punishment.

Can you shoot some dates so we can get the ball rolling!
