Guest comments:
“iRide is THE guide for serious cyclists. Dan picked me up at my guest house doorstep, provided a new, well-tuned Giant Trance bike, and led our group on a great mountain bike ride. The other two clients were both very strong riders and we had a fast, fun ride through Tokai forest. Dan is friendly, knowledgeable, professional, passionate, and a great rider. Highly recommend. “

“I spent 2 days with Daniel after spending a fair amount of time researching the bike scene in Cape Town. I do most of my riding in the UK, but have been mountain biking for 20 years and have done guided rides in most of the worlds continents - Daniel was right up there with the best guides I’ve had. I found IRideAfrica to be a very professional setup, and was impressed by Daniel’s ability to manage a group of people with very different biking abilities and requirements from the days - as a guide, it doesn’t get much harder than that, and he did it very well. The trails and terrain were excellent and there was something for every skill level and riding style - I’m already trying to get my usual bike group to sign up for a week’s trip next year!”
