Berg & Bush biking bliss - boosted by the Bank

It’s been years since we last rode the Standard Bank Berg & Bush and what a treat it was to be back on our bikes at Emseni!

With a power partner like Standard Bank the investment in superb trails has paid off, while the well known farmer hospitality has moved up to the next level.

What more could you want than a full belly, tired legs and a stoked mind as you lie in your canvas glamping tent listening to the Tugela flowing by, beneath fish eagle cries with jackals barking in the distance.

We got to sit down and chew the cud with the race founder who’s story you’ll enjoy of where it all started - just sharing the stoke of his farm trails 👌🏼🇿🇦🏁🦒🐄

When an event partner loves to ride everyone wins.

Justin Bothner, the head honcho at Standard Bank, loves investing in our magnificent continent of Africa and delivering amazing healthy experiences in our unique natural spaces.

We got to ride together and take time out on a rock ledge among the aloes to look out over the Boer war battlefields and celebrate exploring our deep roots by bike.
