Tokai Forest Mountain Bike

Well, it's been a while!

Beef moved to JHB, and ran the comrades this year! What a legend!

Caro had a baby. Muzza is a little legend!

I got married, and injured.

But that's all besides the point.

I bought a bike this week. I know "it's not about the bike", but how awesome is this.

The bike - Giant XTC SE 2

Simon the champion!

Riche - day 1 on the bike

I hit the mountain trails of Tokai forest with the champion Simon Hunter.

What a sensational morning out!

Looking forward to many more.

FAMM postponed

After consecutive weeks of exploring the trails of Cape Town, this week's FAMM takes a break due to some unforeseen work constraints, twisted ankles and overseas trips! If anyone is heading out there tomorrow morning for a Lion's head walk or trail run please let us know and we will spread the word to a building community of trail enthusiasts! Thanks for all your support over the last few weeks and hopefully the early light will allow for a few more magical mornings on our mountains before winter creeps into our souls!

If we can get a team together for a hike this Sunday we will let you know, please feel free to mail us if you are heading out. Good luck to all those tapering for next week's Old Mutual Two Oceans Ultra and Half marathon, may your last week bring you all the rest your mind and body needs to break that PB record!

Happy weekend to everyone and enjoy the splendor that our city has to offer, whether its climbing a mountain, kiting in our ocean, biking on the trails or just sipping a cocktail on the beach! It just can't get better....

EYB SINGLE TRACK!!

Athletes,

FAMM this morning saw about 15 old and new faces traverse the trails of Lions Head and it once again proved to be an epic Cape Town Friday Morning!! Thanks to all those who came out to start their weekend in true style!!

EYB is always very keen to explore the mountains of the Cape, but hopefully in the next few weeks it'll be EYB-on-wheels! We are keen to get together either in the Tokai Forest, Deer Park or Silvermine area's and will split the groups depending on riding ability!

So... dust off the bike, and keep an eye on the blog over the next few weeks for details on the start of EYB SINGLE TRACK.

No hike on Sunday unfortunately, but for those who ARE getting out there this weekend, stay safe and please feel free to send us your photos and stories!

FAMM - FRIDAY 22nd Feb - Trail 'jogging' at it's best!!!

G'Day athletes,

Tomorrow's FAMM sees us on an awesome circular traverse route around the majestic Lion's Head. I cannot think of many cities in the world that would allow such an amazing start to a Friday!! Views are spectacular and the pace will be super super chilled!

The emphasis during FAMM is to stay as a group and accommodate all abilities so please feel free to join in, even if you completely new to the trails of Cape Town! If any trail junkies feel the need for speed, then a separate group can be formed if needs be!

Safety in numbers!!!

MEET TIME: 6am (to start at around 6:10am)

WHERE TO PARK: Kloof Nek Car Park (see map)




EVERYONE WELCOME!!!

EARN YOUR WEEKEND!!!
