SUYL EP 3: Shred Session Down Cork Tree Alley

Episode 3 of the Signal Bikes 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗨𝘀 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹  video series is a ripper, celebrating two young shredders on their home turf  

Youngsters Jasper and Mo are best friends and exude the Spirit of Signal with every smile and pedal stroke they take.

One of their favourite things to do together is ride their local - the Green Belt trail - that snakes its way from Rhodes Memorial to the lower slopes of Tokai in Cape Town's Southern Suburbs.

The duo's best section is the fast paced Cork Tree Alley with its flowing turns and river crossing that provides the perfect picnic spot. It's a chance for them to refuel and climb a few of the nearby trees for fun. Not to mention give Jasper's dad, Stu a chance to catch his breath!
