Downhill
Adventures : Table Mountain Challenge

So
you Thought Mountain Biking was all slog and no fun. No way!
Not with the advent of Downhill Mountain Biking. DOWNHILL
ADVENTURES drives you to the top of the mighty Table Mountain
(just below the cliffs at the base Cable Station). An expert
mountain Guide leads you on the off-road trails while giving
advice on bike handling skills and information about the Fynbos
Floral Kingdom and Geographic structures.
Anybody
can handle this ride because remember: THE
FASTER YOU GO THE MORE EXTREME IT GETS! THE SLOWER YOU GO
THE EASIER IT IS!

The
only prerequisite is that you have ridden a bike before. 90%
of the ride is downhill with 10% uphill (thus giving you the
feeling that you are still riding a bicycle).. Halfway along
the ride there is also the opportunity to cool off and take
a swim in a crystal clear rock pool on the slopes of Table
Mountain.
If the adrenaline from Mountain Biking is not enough there
is also the chance to do the only Kloof Jump (also known as
Kanyoning) on the Mountain. An awesome 14 or 16 meter jump
that will really get you going. Then there is the final descent
down DEVILS PEAK all the way back into the City. A long cruisey
ride that will get you hooked on mountain biking. Definitely
the best way to take in the views of Table Bay, Robben Island,
Lions Head and the City with the added bonus of experiencing
Nature and The Mountain first- hand.
