The bike2bed team looking after our clients as best we could after the 2020 ABSA Cape Epic was cancelled due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 Corona Virus pandemic until such time as flights became available for them to return safely home to their families.

One of my favorite places to ride

Time to chill here in Wellington now after a hectic week with overseas epic clients transporting them from their accommodation to Cape Town Int as flights become available so that they can fly back home.

Ride the 2020 Route 2020 Absa Cape Epic trail networks In light of the cancellation of the 2020 Absa Cape Epic, the team has worked over the last 24 hours alongside the dedicated and passionate 2020 land owners to grant registered riders access to certain sections of the route that was to be ridden over the next 8 days. Our aim is to ensure that all riders who have travelled from around the globe leave South Africa having experienced just a small part of what this incredible event, and all its stakeholders, have to offer with its vast network of breath taking trails and untamed landscapes. Please ensure you sign in using your Absa Cape Epic race number to receive your complimentary trail permits, which have been arranged by our land owners.

Couldn’t have asked for better weather this year, was fantastic.

My d-sus took me to this year's Tankwa Trek..a bit late, but here is a short 1 minute video edit.

New coffee stop, just after heart break hill on the 94.7 route towards Kyalami on the right hand side just before Crowthorne/Beaulieu. Highly recommended.

No, was not me in Lesotho.

Went to the Barberton mud-fest last weekend and managed to put a short video together of the mud, the braai after and Kaapsehoop ride the next day.

P-29er is the love of my life ????

Was raining a bit today in the Cradle, but still great to be out and about and ride with friends.

Mind to share the link?

Ask for the 5mm zip

Went for a ride on the cradle mtb loop yesterday morning

Time to post one of my favorite pics of him. He is sorely missed and every race I watch I think how well Burry would’ve done!
