Flying down narrow singletrack trails on a mountain bike is challenging. Doing so after sundown in the South African wilderness sounds damn near crazy. But if there’s a beer and a beach at the end of the road, then we’re all in.
Live2Ride tours in Langebaan, South Africa–a coastal city roughly 60 miles from Cape Town–offers just that experience for only about $30. Starting at sunset, riders head out from the beachfront, winding through town and up into the woods. The ride is just shy of eight miles long, but the darkness makes dirt roads all the more tricky. (Yes, you’ll have lights.) The trail spits you back out by the water where you can score drinks at Driftwoods restaurant.
If you’re looking for something a bit longer, Live2Ride also offers day tours for about $70. The Aurora route is a grueling climb up into the Piketberg mountains with a total elevation gain of over 3,000 feet. But save some of that energy for a fast descent on the second half–you’ll need it to squeeze your break levers.
