I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
I already felt in love with the area of Cape Town back in 1999 when I visited for a few days. I thought the place was full of colours, the blue sea, the brown mountains, the green vineyards, spectacular place to visit. Then, last year I watched a program, Imparables, with the Spanish actor Santi Millan where he showed his adventure covering the absa cape epic, and all the memories from my trip came to me and I knew immediately the combination of MTB and adventure in Cape Town was for me.
Best Results:
I began racing MTB in the first competitions around my home place in 1992. Those bikes nothing had to do with the ones we use nowadays. After that I have used the MTB to enjoy with friends riding in different countryside areas.
