Video of the Week: 10 Things Every Mountain Biker Should Have Done

[rouxtjie]

I think it's important we all agree that the MTN/PWC/Bryanston "bikepark" is in fact not a bikepark. It's a trail centre but it's not a bikepark.

 

If you go early enough there's snow on the deck at the top of Mosettes between Morzine and Champery. Should I give you my banking details?

whahahaha soon soon....my first priority is a nice roadbike believe it or not....

 

PS don't tell the other guys I just said that.

Nah you can't count that one, that is like us gautengers counting pwc bike park PS there is just something about riding your mielie off for a few days to arrive on the beach...you can start smelling the sea from a couple of km's out. Do a joberg2c and see what the hype is about.

What I was saying it's a silly entry, would karoo2coast then count? how about the CA2C

 

I know exactly what you mean, done lots of bike touring - in canada/alaska the rides to the sea normally had a ferry timetable to race against as well.

 

edit:will edit my original post into the ten list itself.

Did the Portes de Soleil this year.

• 2 countries
  
• snow
  
• bikepark
  
• riding at 0 deg Celcius in the rain
  

And all that on the 25th of June

I think we can also agree that hekpoort to the shebeen via breedts nek doesn't count as crossing a mountain range.

By the time we go there the snow will be gone. Well at least I hope it will. If all goes to plan we'll ride in 3 countries.

 

France

Switzerland

Italy

Rather do Europe.

 

MUCH cheaper.

No timezone differences

[Lefty V]

It's HIGHLY overrated.

 

 

Have to disagree

 

Maybe if you thinking of riding in powdery snow on slopes that actually would need a snowboard, but as far as riding on single track covered in a few centimeters of snow and ice goes (with or without spikes) it can be a great deal of fun.

 

(9/10 for me)

I wish we had snow, so I could justify a fatbike "even more"
