The tour begins with the soft hum of electric motors against a wide Atlantic sky. Riders gather after a brief safety talk inside Cape Point Nature Reserve, helmets on, maps unrolled, while the ocean keeps time below—whitecaps rolling toward ragged cliffs that have tested ships for centuries. From there the group pedals south, the e-bikes taking the strain on the climbs while riders scan the scrub for Cape Mountain zebra and the occasional troop of chacma baboons.
