You do not have to go way out into the cuds to do technical skills iriding.

Right here in the urbs I've realised there are many opportunities to practice your riding skills.

Thanks ot the part completed roads, potholes, badly maintained parks and abundance of open spaces, there are plenty places to find obstacles every bit as challenging as out in the cuds.

I'm in Gordons Bay and around here are a good few places for technical riding.

If you live in the Helderberg and want to get together for a bit of fun rding extra slow-mo down, up, into, out of, through, between, over, under, along, above, below, or around, drop me a PM.

It's always nicer and safer riding with a buddy or three.

 

I have ten cones and last weekend, Annie n I went to a nice sloping bit of urban open space which has quite few obstacles v-right behind the G/Bay Primary School and spent 45 minutes climbing, sliding, slipping, ascending and descending and riding cones which had my wrists totally knackered after 45 minutes.

Between S/West and SLP is a whole plethora of wild lands and railway access road that has given me more than just a few hours of fun negotiating paths, rivers, ruts, mounds and gullies.
