Sanny and Dave take a trip down memory<br />
lane revisiting Dave’s first big mountain<br />
ride on more modern machines.<br />
WORDS & PHOTOGRAPHY DAVID ‘SANNY’ GOULD<br />
It is indeed a curious truth that given how many of us ride<br />
mountain bikes, precious few of them ever see any actual<br />
mountains. There is a strange comfort to be taken from the<br />
knowledge that you could ride up and down a mountain if<br />
you wanted to, even if you never have the inclination to do so.<br />
But what if the heart yearns for more? With bikes becoming<br />
longer and slacker and with travel increasing, today’s machines<br />
are considerably more capable than those that most of us<br />
started out on. As such, there has probably never been a better<br />
time to go off the beaten trail centre path and broaden your<br />
riding horizons.<br />
