Soul riding
April 17th, 2008 by Conrad StoltzOne of the many great things I got to do while in PE for Ambers Ironman was exploring the South Africa East coast by mountain bike. Actually it was training, (1h30 ride with 8×20second sprints) but I played with the location a bit and what came out was this amazing ride from Schoenmaakerskop to Sardinia Bay.
These kind of training sessions don’t come very often, but they provide me with the soul food I need for a long season’s racing, training, traveling and getting visas.
This is why I love my job…
I also got to really put my Specialized Stumpjumper 29er through its paces on the sand. With tires deflated to 15 psi, I can ride almost any sand or pebble beach.
