Raw natural trails, a little hike-a-bike and some great adventure! A special thanks to the Nkosi Mazibuko and the Umzinyati Community for welcoming us into their home turf.

It's not all about the ride, listening to the history, taking in the scenery adds to the adventure.

So much interest! So many questions! some answers:
- Riding in groups of different fitness and skill means we cater for all mountain bikers from week-end warriors with some off road experience to the 'snakes'.
- Route description in the info is for the most fit and skilled, while we have short cuts and detours for the more recreational riders.
- On the Thursday warm-up amble, we get to know the riders and advise them which group we think is best for them.

We have had a few inquiries as to the suitability of the tour for kids. As with adults, this depends on where they are in their riding. We can adapt routes as above. We are engaging the accommodation to see what sort of package we can come up with for families.
