South Africa Singletrack Holiday, South Africa

Be prepared to be blown away!





Would you like to join us on an epic trip from Cape Town to Natal and ride trails like these? Of course you would! Contact us today to find out more!

Cycling in Cape Town

A great start to the day ! We are privileged to live in this city with sun, surrounded by sea and mountain towering above us. The cycling potential here is massive-twisting roads to ride on and fantastic offroad riding to be done all over the mountain.

This morning we cycled over from the Southern Suburbs into town on the slopes of Devils Peak and Table Mountain into town.

This 'iRide' will take place every Friday from now on. Meet at 6:30 at Rhodes memorial cattle grid. It is PERFECT for anyone who works in town and wants to get some excercise in while missing out on sitting in traffic. Join us!

Back to biking

We have all taken a Christmas break here at iRide Africa. Jennie has been in freezing and snowy Sweden while the rest of us explored South Africa for more epic rides- and boy did we find some!
(please excuse the horrible phone photos-they don't do this country justice!)

We got to sample some amazing passes;






We also got a chance to catch up with old friends and test their skills on some gnarly singletrack;

Of course, some mountain biking on Table Mountain went down a treat as well as some rides into the Overberg.

And don't forget that Cape Town is almost ready for the Football World Cup! We have a few cycling tours between matches so contact us if you want to go on a cycling trip or two.
