Hey guys, thinking of riding from Knysna to Stellies in April. Any recommendations for midway stops /overnight accomodation? Anyone tried adding in a stop at Prince Albert along the way? I see it's about 72km from Oudtshoorn. Thanks
Over My Handlebars www.OMHB.co.za is partnering with Rebellie Lodge to give away a 2-night stay in a 10 sleeper lodge and the chance to make an action video of the epic mountain biking on the game farm.

???????????? thanks for the warning JXV, definitely won't be doing that again (even if it was legal) Lesotho trip sounds like a must, was reading a thread about that today in fact. Are there not similar restrictions on that side if the border?
100% Agreed in terms of the preservation of the fauna&flaura - obviously it would never be our intention to cause damage. However I do think some sort of balance could be struck i.t.o curating a few routes in/over the berg that would be rideable and hopefully environmentally sustainable. I'm quite a novice when it comes to hiking in the berg, but we did a Mnweni/Rockeries route a year or two ago - I wouldn't have thought that much of it was rideable outside of the lower berg - portaging a bike up Mnweni would be a tough task!
An adventure that started as an experimental ride on the contour path from Champagne Castle to Cathedral Peak ended up being way more than we bargained for. http://omhb.co.za/video/41 Any of you guys found good spots for riding ON the berg ?
