It's a simple piece of equipment; the bicycle.  In its simplicity lies its beauty.  Cycling means different things to different people, but it all comes down to a feeling.

That feeling changes - some days it is a feeling of freedom, others it is a feeling of control; then there are days when it is all about friendship, while on others you soak up the solitude, or sit tight throught the suffering, or savour the speed.

Whether you are carving your line smoothly around a corner; or feeling the burn of lactic acid in your legs as you conquer a climb; or just freewheeling slowly in the sunshine, celebrating your healt, you receive a special gift each time you get on your bicycle.  The feelings are yours alone and therefore more meaningful in their simplicity.

Mountain biking is a wonderful way to merge into the landscape and watch the wildlife, people and scenery of this remote region. You can pedal across the multitude of ranches welded into the Plateau, while the Great Rift Valley’s geographic marvels are ideal for a group cycling trip.
