Just started getting back into riding and toke my son to ride the pump track there the last weekend, its really nice to get a glance at what else is available. This has definitely made me want to go back and ride myself. Never had so many options in JHB before moving up! Thanks for the videos, definitely giving insight on where to go!

@@WarrenMelissaGoRiding quick question. What suspension travel do your Levo’s have. I just got a Scott Strike eRide and am wanting to know if 150mm travel front and rear (Front shock is a Fox 35) is enough ebike suspension to be hitting jumps and drops and rock gardens.

The rock roll to slab drop on Cobra is probably easier than weaving through it, especially now that it's been padded. Well done on the Boomslang drop, nice.

@24:45 .... Can speak from experience having fallen down there... It's completely fine :) It looks steep, but you go about 2m and stop so you can hardly fall. Glad Savage took you okes down Pat's, it really is the king line on the mountain. When you get a clean, fast run (the clean part happens often believe it or not) it's wild. The most amazing trail in the dark as well...well, all of them actually :)
