Thanks guys, haven't managed MTB yet, but road bike booked for hire this weekend.
Mountain bike hire is easy and cheap though. With epic terrain on the doorstep it has to be the best getaway from the city. Santa Elena is the hotspot. For a city that has great cable car transport reaching the steepest barrios, it's a shame there isn't a cable car / gondola to the trailhead or shuttle bus service, so MTBs either have to ride there (a lot of uphill) or drive there.
