wildmountain Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Mountain Biking in the Eastern Cape Drakensberg. See http://www.wildmountainadventures.co.za/page8.htm for more about trails that include single track, twin track, technical riding and the high altitude challenge of the 8 Mountain Passes in the area. Ideal race training.

AndreZA Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Just because you go up a mountain does not make it mountain biking. That is just off-road biking. "Mountain biking" is what you do with 120mm+ suspension bikes down a mountain.

flex Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Whatever you call it, it looks nicer than my ride up Ontdekkers road this morning!

Andyr249 Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I once had a girlfriend from Bloem. Not quite sure I agree with you though.Area looks great for MTB'ing!! Need to plan a trip!

This looks a lot like the road between Rhodes & Tiffindell??
Racingsnail Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 That is awesome...looks a bit muddy.The great thing about this sport is that it is so many different things to so many different people. You can ride the same trail as a multi millionaire on a bike that is a 10th of the value of his. You can get to see the most amazing places in this country of ours. You can struggle for an hour to get to the top of a hill only to turn around and spend 10mins racing down it...or stop at the top and enjoy the view.I love it!
