Hey Girls and Guys

Its not often we can say this, but here goes...

CAPE TOWN HAS A NEW MTB TRAIL

And its sooooo good. I mean, what else would you expect when you get together some of the best trail builders, Shimano and the man himself, Mr Andrew Neethling. The new trail aptly named "Needles For Speed" can be found on the lower slopes of the Helderberg Farm which is located on the famous R44 in Somerset West.

Andrew chats to us about the new trail, how it came about and then we get to take you down it..

This farm is honestly one of the hidden gems of Cape Town and we are so grateful to all who make riding there possible.

Be sure to check out The Hanger Bike Co while you there to see what a top notch bike shop looks like as well as to see some awesome memorabilia from Andrew and Jonty's racing days.

Prepare for your most epic MTB ride yet!

It does look like a fun trail, and as Andrew said, it has a couple of creative lines from what I saw on the video. @Warren Melissa Go Riding, maybe you guys could do a video showcasing more of the trails available there? I have been meaning to go ride for quite some time, but the trek from Sunningdale to Somerset West has deterred me to date, mainly because I keep hearing things about this enormous climb that then leaves me wondering if it was worth the effort and expense in getting there. But from this video those lines do look fun.
