Weekly Rides & Skills Workshops for Kids and Adults in/around Cape Town

01/11/2026

Stay positive. Say it like it’s done. Know what you want. Follow your dreams. Believe in yourself. Take action.

Simple words, but powerful reminders.

The journey isn’t always clear, and fear and doubt will always be part of it. But sometimes you just have to trust the process, take that first step and start putting the puzzle pieces together.

Don’t let fear hold you back. Keep moving forward, one step, one pedal stroke at a time.

Eventually, the bigger picture comes together.

🚀 TIME TO GET YOUR WHEELS OFF THE GROUND!
Our next Adult Jump Workshop is coming up on 14th November at Bloemendal.
Jumping is about more than simply getting your wheels off the ground. Good technique gives you more control, confidence and consistency — whether you’re working on your first jumps or looking to take your existing skills further.
Our Level 1 & 2 Jump Workshop is designed to help you understand the fundamentals, build good habits and get plenty of repetition in a supportive environment.

🔹 LEVEL 1 For riders who are newer to jumping or still feeling unsure when approaching jumps. We’ll work on the fundamentals and help you become more comfortable and controlled when your wheels leave the ground.
🔹 LEVEL 2 For riders who are already comfortable with smaller jumps and want to progress further. We’ll work on technique, confidence, height and consistency to help you take your jumping to the next level.

🎯 WHO SHOULD JOIN? Intermediate riders who can confidently ride blue and red trails, with at least a year of regular riding experience. You don’t need to be an experienced jumper — just be ready to learn and progress.

📅 14 November 2026 📍Bloemendal, Tygerberg MTB ⏰ 9am – 12pm 🚵 Adults | Level 1 & 2 ⚡ Regular MTB & E-Bikes welcome 💰 R890 per person

Confidence is built one feature at a time.

Start small, practise the skills, push your comfort zone and celebrate the small wins. You don’t have to tackle everything at once. Trust the process, trust your progress, and remember that every confident rider started somewhere.
Progress comes from showing up and giving it a go.
