Nominate and win with Contego Segment Hunter and Cadence Nutrition

· By Press Office · 75 comments

We’re looking for you to nominate your favourite Strava segments to be featured in our Contego Segment Hunter video series. If your segment is chosen you could win a Cadence Nutrition hamper valued at R2,620.

Each Contego Segment Hunter episode will feature a different type of segment, be it a technical mountain bike descent, a lung busting road climb or even a combination of the both.

How does it work?

  1. Nominate one or more of your favourite Strava segments in the relevant categories in the form below.

The Contego Segment Hunter team will select the segments best suited to the series. Should one of your segment nominations be selected, you will stand a chance to win a Cadence Nutrition hamper worth R2,620.

Note: Due to constraints, nominations are limited to segments within a couple hours drive from Cape Town.

ccs-62657-0-88551500-1463124796.jpgThe Cadence Nutrition hamper will consist of a CarboFuel Tub, a Marathon Tub, a Revive Tub, 20 Bars, 30 Gels, and six 500ml bottles.

Grand Prize: Contego Unit Trust worth R30,000

At the end of the series, Contego are giving away R30,000 worth of unit trusts. All you have to do is ride your bike!

How to enter:

  1. Join the Contego Segment Hunter Strava club and record your segment rides on Strava.
  2. Get out and ride! After each segment is announced go and ride it. Please ride safely though, there is no prize for being the fastest.

For each Contego Segment Hunter segment you ride, you will be entered into the draw to win. So if you ride all six segments during the series, you will receive six entries.

Episode 1 features the segment “Bloemslang – Just the drop” at Bloemendal. Watch the preview and find out more here.

I have always had weird times with THE single track - seems to have some dodgy start/finish points since it got fixed up, you can't hang around near either...

looks the complete plum pudding climb, so not at the tree, the lower point of the climb, the intersection that takes you to De Waal Dr

Who or what is Die Muishond? Is he like the Stig? Seems to be on top or near the top of most of the hard segments out my way.

Get your visa for behind the curtain, come and de-throne LBK. Once they've finished repairs of course.

Average gradient of 16%...but the crux if the climb is 20%-25% loose and rocky. Its a real nail bitter when it comes to line choice! Would love to actually see someone ride it!

There's a few, all on dirt roads

 

Oubergpass - It's part of one of the oldest passes and the original Forgotten Highway through the barren Karoo, the original diamond route between Ceres and Kimberley:

Merino Bastard - It's never ending!

Swartbergpass (North side) - Long and steep!

Swartbergpass (South side) - Long and steep!

Edit: Don't waste your time on short little twisty Strava segments for the Videos, not the ones that will allow you recovery time after a few hours and attempt again the same or next day. Select the ones a bit off the beaten track and the ones that you'll feel in your legs many days after attempting it  :thumbup:
