As our name
LIVE2RIDE suggests we
“Live to Ride”. Those who know us say that we are obsessed,
and we are proud of it. We absolutely love mountain biking
and the way that it makes you feel when you ride. No matter
who you are and how you ride, if you have been out mountain
biking you will have something to say about it.
We are proud admit
that we love South Africa, its people, its history and most
of all its future and the opportunities that lie ahead. That
is why we believe that the best way to see and experience
our country is from the seat of a mountain bike. So we dream
of being the destination of choice for mountain biking in
South Africa offering a world class mountain bike
experience.
Founder
and driving force behind LIVE2RIDE is Alan Cotton.
He has spent
his life “living to ride”
land, water and ice, bicycles,
windsurfers, skateboards, kiteboards and snowboards. But it
is the cycling that started first
and has always been there. From
learning to ride as a kid, through the BMX era that honed
his skills and finally onto his first MTB in Tahoe
California in the early 90's. Since then he as travelled
South Africa riding over 50 mountain bike events around the
