Day 4 at Go2Sea brought a tough 108km stage as the riders continued their journey towards the sea. With every kilometer, the demands on both the riders and their bikes continue to grow. A huge shoutout to Siyabonga for taking the win today! 🏆But once again, the real story of Go2Sea was found within the communities along the route.Today, we spoke to two incredible NPOs that are making a difference in their communities but need more funding and support to continue the work they do.First, we met with SARZA Search and Rescue, an organization dedicated to helping people when they need it most.🌐 SARZA: https://www.sarza.co.za/We also spent time with the Estcourt Animal Shelter, who work tirelessly to care for animals in need and give them a second chance.📱 Estcourt Animal Shelter:https://www.facebook.com/estcourtanimalshelterBoth organizations are doing important work with limited resources, and we want to help shine a light on what they do and encourage anyone who is able to support them to get involved.Go2Sea is showing us that the impact of this race extends far beyond the road.00:00 Intro01:03 Race brief02:35 In the race03:39 Ivor Interview06:49 Pushing Siyabonga08:10 Estcourt Animal Shelter10:30 Back to the race10:42 Siyaboga's Moment13:10 What do you ride for13:54 Finish line=== FOLLOW ACTIVE HOBO =========================https://linktr.ee/theactivehobo=== PARTNER LINKS ===================================Doolhof Wine Estatehttps://doolhof.com 🔗 Code: ActiveHobo (20% off wines)RH 77🔗 https://rh77.co.za226ERS 🔗 https://226ers.co.za/Code: ActiveHobo (10% off)SCICON🔗 https://theactivehobo.short.gy/scicon...

Jason’s Story: Racing Through Cystic Fibrosis, All the Way to Japan | The Breakaway EP33 10.09.2026 1t 34min

Before anything else: this week we lost someone close to our community. Our sincerest condolences go out to everyone who knew and loved her. And our thoughts are with Michael Foster and his family, currently in ICU after a collision while cycling, he's showing positive signs, and we're holding onto hope. Please, be careful out there.On a different note, we're glad to have Jason back. Years ago, he made a video about endurance that, without either of us realising it at the time, has quietly become one of the first things people watch after being diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. He's back to talk about that, about a race in Japan that pushed him further than he expected, and about what actually drives someone to keep going when it would be so much easier to stop.We also cover the news: La Vuelta a España has been genuinely brilliant racing, with Enric Mas putting in performances that have won over even the skeptics.0:00 — Intro1:49 — Community News: A Tragic Loss & Ongoing Prayers4:59 — go2sea & Racing News Roundup8:48 — La Vuelta a España: Enric Mas Impresses1:03:16 — Jason's Story: Living With Cystic Fibrosis1:08:09 — What Really Drives You: Love, Hate & Shame1:33:48 — Wrap-Up & Thanks to Jason# === LISTEN ON THE GO ===========================Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GselFmeym7YgYXtcyPUXUApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/active-hobo/id1846864699# === FOLLOW ACTIVE HOBO =========================https://linktr.ee/theactivehobo# === PARTNER LINKS ===================================Doolhof Wine Estatehttps://doolhof.com 🔗 Code: ActiveHobo (20% off wines)RH 77🔗 https://rh77.co.za226ERS 🔗 https://226ers.co.za/Code: ActiveHobo (10% off)SCICON🔗 https://theactivehobo.short.gy/sciconsports-discount (URL and 10% Discount code link)East City Cycles🔗 https://eastcitycycles.com/Gear Change Bicycle Store🔗 https://gearchange.co.za/# === THE CREW ===================================Dave @davlewjenkinsJaryd @jarryd_haley # === MORE FROM ACTIVE HOBO ======================Latest episode: https://youtu.be/vSnCZ6pTguQ?si=4hvAobdbQznnyw10Full podcast playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLc2XIoaiAXafwoZykJM-jg6HnrLkWlJXHRelated episode: https://youtu.be/mgogDtiB_vg?si=RBaUt8VItbQisdTd# === WORK WITH US ===============================Sponsorships & collabs: [email protected] a question for the show: [email protected]#TheBreakawayPodcast #TheActiveHobo #StoriesThatMatter#CysticFibrosis #LaVuelta

The Coach Teaching South Africa’s Kids to Ride Fearlessly | Rob du Preez 08.09.2026 1t 7min

He was told to teach kids ball skills. He ended up building one of Cape Town's most trusted mountain bike coaching businesses — almost entirely by accident.Rob du Preez is the founder of Rubber Side Down, a Cape Town-based mountain bike skills coaching business born out of an unlikely place: the 2020 lockdowns. In this conversation he traces the whole path — growing up racing road and track in Durban, discovering mountain biking almost by chance, and the strange gift that COVID gave an entire generation of South African kids who suddenly needed something to do outside.He breaks down the three fundamental skills that determine how safe, confident, and fast any rider will ever be, looking ahead, braking, and staying balanced... and why he believes most cyclists never look at them because they're too busy chasing watts and nutrition plans. He talks candidly about coaching kids as young as four and a half, the parents who need almost as much guidance as their children, and why he believes South African cycling has a "perception problem" — we're already among the best in the world, we just don't see ourselves that way yet.This is a conversation about what it actually takes to build confidence on a bike, and why the skills that keep a beginner safe are the same ones that make a professional fast.0:00 — Cold open: the one rule of coaching kids0:43 — Meet Coach Rob, from KZN road racer to MTB skills coach6:52 — How COVID accidentally created Rubber Side Down9:21 — Enduro vs. downhill, and finding his own line in gravity riding15:56 — Building a business at the intersection of passion and skill19:15 — The three fundamental skills every rider needs30:45 — South Africa's "perception problem" in sport35:46 — Inside the explosion of the Western Cape schools series45:15 — What makes a good — or a reckless — skills coach48:37 — Coaching the parents as much as the kids1:02:12 — Rob's dream of coaching overseas# === LISTEN ON THE GO ===========================Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GselFmeym7YgYXtcyPUXUApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/active-hobo/id1846864699# === FOLLOW ACTIVE HOBO =========================https://linktr.ee/theactivehobo# === PARTNER LINKS ===================================Doolhof Wine Estatehttps://doolhof.com 🔗 Code: ActiveHobo (20% off wines)RH 77🔗 https://rh77.co.za226ERS 🔗 https://226ers.co.za/Code: ActiveHobo (10% off)SCICON🔗 https://theactivehobo.short.gy/sciconsports-discount (URL and 10% Discount code link)East City Cycles🔗 https://eastcitycycles.com/Gear Change Bicycle Store🔗 https://gearchange.co.za/# === THE CREW ===================================Dave @davlewjenkins# === MORE FROM ACTIVE HOBO ======================Latest episode: https://youtu.be/vSnCZ6pTguQ?si=4hvAobdbQznnyw10Full podcast playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLc2XIoaiAXafwoZykJM-jg6HnrLkWlJXHRelated episode: https://youtu.be/mgogDtiB_vg?si=RBaUt8VItbQisdTd# === WORK WITH US ===============================Sponsorships & collabs: [email protected] a question for the show: [email protected]#StoriesThatMatter #TheActiveHobo #MountainBiking

Does technical Skills coaching actually work? | Road to Gravel Burn Episode 9 06.09.2026 15min

Coming off a brutal recovery week following the Sedgefield 500, the focus turns to something I never properly worked on: technical mountain bike skills. A session with coach Rob from Rubber Side Down MTB Skills starts in a parking lot with basic balance — and ends up reshaping everything from body position to cornering, ahead of the notoriously technical terrain expected at the Nedbank Gravel Burn. Along the way: a hard lesson in self-compassion after a rough week of fatigue, a preview of the next big test (the seven-day go2sea stage race), and the packing system that's about to save a lot of race-day stress!0:00 — Cold Open: "I Knew Everything, I Knew Nothing"0:16 — The Fatigue Reset: What a Hard Recovery Week Actually Taught1:36 — What's Next: A Community Story Ahead of go2sea2:40 — A Skills Lesson With Rob: Body Position, Tyres & Suspension9:06 — The Cornering Pattern That Changes Everything11:00 — The Parking Lot Reality Check12:40 — Packing Smart: Sorting the Bike Bag Before Race Day15:19 — What's Coming Next on the Road to Gravel Burn# === LISTEN ON THE GO ===========================Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GselFmeym7YgYXtcyPUXUApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/active-hobo/id1846864699# === FOLLOW ACTIVE HOBO =========================https://linktr.ee/theactivehobo# === PARTNER LINKS ===================================Doolhof Wine Estatehttps://doolhof.com 🔗 Code: ActiveHobo (20% off wines)RH 77🔗 https://rh77.co.za226ERS 🔗 https://226ers.co.za/Code: ActiveHobo (10% off)SCICON🔗 https://theactivehobo.short.gy/sciconsports-discount (URL and 10% Discount code link)East City Cycles🔗 https://eastcitycycles.com/Gear Change Bicycle Store🔗 https://gearchange.co.za/# === THE CREW ===================================Dave @davlewjenkins# === MORE FROM ACTIVE HOBO ======================Latest episode: https://youtu.be/vSnCZ6pTguQ?si=4hvAobdbQznnyw10Full podcast playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLc2XIoaiAXafwoZykJM-jg6HnrLkWlJXHRelated episode: https://youtu.be/mgogDtiB_vg?si=RBaUt8VItbQisdTd# === WORK WITH US ===============================Sponsorships & collabs: [email protected] a question for the show: [email protected]#RoadToGravelBurn #TheActiveHobo #StoriesThatMatter #MountainBiking #GravelCycling
