Beach trail runs that go on forever, huge point breaks in great white country, gravel road pedalling for a 100kays, sandstone arches of biblical proportions, ancient Viswyver traps, hide-away beaches perfect for sundowners … no wonder we had to stay in Stilbaai for a couple extra days. I wanna be there … now. Click here [...]

I joined the ‘International Academy for Leadership through Adventure’ on their first overnight adventure hike along a stunning section of the southern Cape coast from beyond Blombos to Jongensfontein. A glorious sunset morphed into a storm squall that evening, and after a Cape cobra visited our shelter, we decided to hit the trail again around [...]

So I’ve had around two weeks to play with the new HERO 3, and the fun has certainly found me. Whether you go caving through the Kalk Bay mountains, surfing the Clovelly break, zipping down the Muiz Super-Tubes, snorkelling off Boulders, swimming Kleinplaas Dam, rock-rabbiting along 50+ mountain trails or bombing the Ou Wapad, there [...]

Karoo sunsets, moer-and-gone horizons, monster-fishing in real life with the kids, free-range steaks that would satisfy a T-Rex and muddy [...]

These are just a few of the pix from Day 1, with lots more uploads to come. Click here to view the [...]

Energizer’s annual Night Race in Jozi once again unfolded as a vertiable festival of lights, with a good 4 000 mountain bikers, trail runners and walkers blazing along the Modderfontein Nature Reserve trails to reclaim the night with their colourful head torches. Kudos to Max Cluer, Bronden Blunden and their incredible team for putting together [...]
