There’s always a fun day at the Absa Cape Epic, and barring bad weather this should be it. First there are a few climbs to negotiate, including a particularly nasty one that has concrete strips for traction and then the legendary Nuweberg from the east side.
A couple more climbs – watch out for some washed-out sections on the descents – as the course weaves across the hills above Grabouw and then you are in singletrack heaven. You will do most of the A-to-Z trail network above the Elgin/Grabouw Country Club and around the Eikenhof Dam, and then the renowned trails on Paul Cluver Estate and Oak Valley while heading back to the race village.
