Richard's Mountain Biking Diary: Longest MTB ride
http://www.mountainbikingdiary.com/2015/02/longest-mtb-ride.html
Sunday, February 8, 2015. This was a great place for a pit stop as there was plenty shade and food and coffee stalls to refresh our battered bodies. On the way to Irene when going through the bush we came upon a tame Zebra. This was an awesome sight as the Zebra was out of place and must have escaped from the nearby game reserve. Evening rides around Korsman Pan watching the sun go down. Linda going down 'Mark the other way' segment. Labels: Benoni mountain biking. Mountain Bike rides in the East Rand.

Richard's Mountain Biking Diary: 4th of July 2015 - Irene Market ride
http://www.mountainbikingdiary.com/2015/07/4th-of-july-2015-irene-market-ride.html
Monday, July 6, 2015. 4th of July 2015 - Irene Market ride. Irene Market is special, there is a nice vibe, great coffee and the best home made muffins that one could ever taste. We went back home a different way (which is always my preferred option) and unfortunately the group split up with the racing snakes not waiting for the second group. This ride is one of my favourite rides and I finished on 102km - click here for the Strava stats of the ride. Group photo after coffee and muffin's at Irene Market.

Sunday, May 20, 2012. Sani2C Trail 2012 - my story. So my mountain biking goal has been achieved, I have managed to complete the illustrious Sani to Sea mountain bike race.My senses have had a serious overload over the 3 magnificent days that I tested my body and rode 260kms from Underberg in the Drakensberg Mountains to Scottbourough by the sea in beautiful South Africa. Day 1 was a 80km. Start of Day 1. What fun riding the floating bridge over the dam. Sheer joy at riding over this hoodo. The long hill...

Richard's Mountain Biking Diary: After Sani...
http://www.mountainbikingdiary.com/2012/06/after-sani.html
Wednesday, June 6, 2012. So after what was possibly one of the most memorable weeks of my life at Sani2C with the best riding, one could ever. Imagine on a mountain bike, how you do proceed from here? It seems such a pity to take your foot off the accelerator (um sorry I mean pedal) after all those hectic months of training - yes there is an argument that your body needs a break, but I feel stronger then ever and need some extra motivation to keep on riding trough these cold winter months. There were ama...

Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Phew….some fresh and hard riding. It has been some fresh riding the past few weeks. Early morning temps plummeting well below 0 degrees Celsius.
