Daarnaast zoeken we regelmatig de uitdaging op tijdens (meerdaagse) mountainbike-marathons.<\/p>\n<p>Onze fietsavonturen speelden zich tot nu toe af in Europa. We hebben al ontzettend veel mooie plekken gezien en bijzondere momenten beleefd. Wat we meemaken delen we graag via Instagram en Strava. Niet omdat het moet, maar omdat het hopelijk inspireert, verbindt en het ons al veel nieuwe idee\u00ebn en mooie ontmoetingen heeft opgeleverd.<\/p>\n<p>De droom om ooit de Cape Epic te rijden heeft iedere mountainbiker, maar is voor velen onrealistisch. Daarom besloten we Zuid-Afrika op een andere manier te ontdekken. In december 2025 reisden we af met MTB Zuid Afrika \u2014 en eerlijk gezegd waren we na een paar dagen al verkocht. Door de enorme diversiteit aan trails, de overweldigende natuur, de hartelijke mensen, en zeker ook door het fantastische eten. Zuid-Afrika bleek niet zomaar een mooie bestemming, maar een plek waar je als mountainbiker verliefd op wordt.<\/p>\n<p>We wisten meteen: hier willen we terugkomen. En niet alleen voor onszelf, maar om deze ervaring te delen met een groep gelijkgestemden. Samen fietsen, samen genieten, samen beleven. Social riding staat centraal, zonder de aandacht voor de omgeving te verliezen en altijd met voldoende uitdaging op routes die je tot de mooiste van je leven zult rekenen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lijkt het je leuk om ons al eerder te leren kennen?
