Sani Pass Weekend

Sometimes you just think you are bullet proof! You take on ridiculous challenges, this weekend was one such challenge I thought I was capable of doing but, I failed to make it through both days from beginning to end. Having said this I managed a first day of 75kms and a second day just short of 30kms, I made it half way up Sani Pass and then got in the car. MTB is a completely different story to riding on the road, the rugged terrain coupled with a different setup on the bike changes the way you ride, it is often said that for every 1km completed off road it is worth 2km on the road, this weekend proved that point, what made our ride so tough this weekend was the amount of climbing we had to do.

These pictures was taken from the top of Sani as we were about to descend back down the pass to SA on Sunday morning. This trip took us close on 3 Hours to complete.

We had the most awesome weekend riding and having fun and although it was tough it is a great experience.
