We are very fortunate (for now), in having huge open tracts of land where we can ride, everything from flat out pinned throttle stuff, to very technical rocky terrain. This clip is of a local track in Jhb, it is a set out route that gets changed by the owner from time to time to mix things up a bit, and to rehabilitate the land. There one must follow the route as much as humanely possible.
The section shown is the red loop, and that is way easier than the "technical koppie", koppie being a local word for any hill type terrain that has lots of rocks and step ups + drop offs. It's a pity everyone's helmet cams were either flat or full before we got to the koppie as there was some choice footage there!
