Not been on holiday with them. However, the owner James and another one of their guides, did their Instructor / Leader qualification with us.

They are real nice guys, and James is a top rider.

I would imagine they are running a good set up.

I see from Facebook that Jim has been doing a lot of work on the downhill trails on Monchique. Lagos is a nice place to be based too.

I rode with them for one day a couple of years ago.

We were put in to a small group together with a family.. It started to go a bit wrong cos it was really bloody hot and the family looked as though they were going to expire. I then commented that we (my brother in law and I) wanted to ride something a bit faster and techy. Jim split the group and we together with the young son headed off separate from the others - it was good. Scenic, not very tech, hard work cos it was soooo hot.

Not sure I'd do it again for a day though. But the holidays they do seem more like the real thing though.
