South African mountain biking

And this is not directed at you at all but I see this and I want to ride 

so I am obviously a South African mountain biker 

I probably look at what “real” mountain bikers ride and think no thanks looks like I’ll crash

Hard to beat this ATB - that’s a mountain bike before mountain bikes - biopace triple and for extra speed, 2 frisbees at the rear

There's a lot of extra water pipe welded in The Ridion frame.

Honestly, the bike I still long for the most is an old dirt jump hardtail that I built up as a trail bike back around 2008. It had 120mm of coil spring suspension and weighed a ton.

Don't think I've ever come close to enjoying riding as much as I did with that bike.

Is Cav riding a prototype for his stage wins? I mean that one sprint he won with the chain completely off the chainrings was a bit of a giveaway.

10 out of 10 historians disagree with this statement!

I used to mountain bike in the Witfontein forests in George on a Hansom during the 90's. These days okes ride #Endurobro on those same trails with the 170mm dual sus monster bikes wearing the latest gear such as full face helmets. fox and/or Leatt full body armor, "in case, like ,they fall bru". On the weekends that bike was a mountain bike. During the week it took me to school, home, school sports, mates, home again. Good times. No strava, no HRM's, no KOM's, just pure fun.

Looks like a lot of loose gravel there. A nightmare!
