ATXZJ Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) Wife and I finally made it out to Bandera for some practice before the race. Place has a lot of potential, staff were courteous and the views are pretty sweet too. Trails are typical CTX gnar but with some gravity thrown in for the fun factor. If you've ridden cat mountain then this place should feel very similar but with an optional shuttle for people who want to get the most out of their time there. We hit all the green/blue stuff and will head back in a week or so for the more advanced trails. Big and small jumps, doubles, off camber and loose steep stuff are the name of the game and there's a little something for any skill level. Wife was finally hitting some jumps for the first time. Race is gonna be suh-weetđ  https://www.instagram.com/p/B3mSZn9HPZP/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet Edited October 14, 2019 by ATXZJ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good idea. IMHO, if you are racing you need a full day or two of riding there to get a feel for the trails. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATXZJ Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Wife is racing beginner class. Trails are super fun and most everything is rollable. You'll like it. Shuttle is worth the $$ if you're going to practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might shoot Seth a PM or find him on IG and see whats going on. IMHO, if youre gonna go practice, pay extra for the shuttle.  Have fun!

Seths Pool Posted October 31, 2019 Author Share Posted October 31, 2019 EVERYONE WHO HAS NOT ALREADY REGISTERED PLEASE READ - This event is going to be catered by a great company out of Austin - "The Midnight Baker". People waiting until the very last minute to register causes planning complications and difficulties for participant accommodations. I did not implement registrations discounts for early registrations, nor higher price penalties for later registrations, but catering for large events takes time, money, and planning to prepare the food and have enough for everyone. ***anyone who registers after Friday, November 8th will more than likely not receive the catered meal.*** meal wrist bands will be given at registration based on registration date. Waiting to register until the last minute prevents us from accurately scaling our accommodation needs. please register before Next Friday, November 8th if you would like to receive the free catered meal on race day. please message me directly if needed! Register at - Bikereg.com/Banduro Thanks and see everyone at Bandera Bike Park! PLEASE SHARE THIS POST! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
