    MTBing in the Drakensberg SA

    It was surprisingly smooth over roots and the like, even with the 41mm cross tires. Not entirely sure why but could be some of that much touted 29er thing of the bigger wheels taking the bumps better. Oddly the whole ride seemed somehow less jarring than the rigid Inbred. :?
