Hi Guys

A bus drove us to the start … Read More »

Round 3 of the GM KZN Series took part at the Cascades track in PMB. The course was short fast and dry resulting in quick times and close finishes.

Patrick Morewood and Richard Carter of Morewood Bikes were there as well sipping down some cold ones and making noise. It was a great day with … Read More »

Its XC time again. words from Roan Exelby:

Jislaaik!

Hot hot hot. We have been having some crazy weather lately – racing in this kind of heat takes some skill to keep dehydration and heat stroke at bay yet still ride at a respectable pace!

The DCM boys were flying this weekend – Brandon and Rourke put in a solid attack on lap 1 (of 9) to stay ahead the entire race.

Andrew Warr (Spider), Andrew Hill (Mountain Man), Carl Calverly … Read More »

Round 2 of the regional series went down at the Worlds View track this last weekend…

Slightly better weather on the same track that everyone raced on 2 weeks ago. Greg Minnaar raced again, Tim Bentley was fast, Motocrosser Justin Cope is adapting real quick but most impressive was Tiaan Odendaals 3rd overall less than 4 seconds off the winners (Minnaar) time. A real low key kind of guy but very fast. Fox/Morewood rider Travis Browning making a comeback after slaming his hand and breaking his knuckle a few weeks ago. Good to see him back on it. All and all … Read More »

Roan Exelby gives us some feedback from the 1st leg of the KZN XC cup:

Stainbank Nature reserve was an awesome setting for the first leg of provincial XC racing… I managed to bag my first win for 2010. Andrew Warr rode in his typical attacking style but couldn’t hold on – he went off the front with Themba on the 3rd lap and i had to chase hard to reel them in.

Well done to JT for kicking some butt and coming in 2nd in his debut XC race (Veteran category). Respect.

Themba (Dave Leiman) is riding like a madman to … Read More »

Morewood rider Fabien Cousinie took part in the Megavalanche Reunion Race recently and this is what he had to say:

Here is some fresh news from the Réunion Island Megavalanche race.
For the last race of the season i finished 5th on the podium. “the machine ” Wildhaber won the race and some Enduro specialist and XC guys were in front of me.
I’m pretty glad because the race was so hard technicaly and physicaly and everybody was using enduro bikes 6inch travel and i used my makulu with a single pivot fork… not really my first choice but at the … Read More »

Check out what DIRT had to say about our Morewood Makulu.

November 29th, 2009 @ 9:30 AM

There is something about this frameset that sets it apart from its rivals, whether it’s down to the design of the frame and its linkage or the tuned factory BOS suspension, it’s hard to say. But what is clear when you mount the Makulu is that it is different from anything you’ve ridden before, the suspension truly isolates the rider from the ground in a way which at first is almost disarming. But it doesn’t take long to get used to floating over the … Read More »

We love watching video’s, especially on a Monday morning when you really should be edging into your week-load of work. Simon Garstin, one of the Morewood riders who is supported by Lama Cycles gave us a good enough excuse to do so this morning, his video just made the “VOD: Video of the Day” on pinkbike and has already received 17000 views! Nice one guys! Great video! Enjoy,
