Robertson Winery MTB

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone! We appreciate it! If someone lost a phone on the route, please let me know, we found it!

The route has dried out considerably. There will be some wet spots but you should be able to get around them without trouble. There is no crossings or deep puddles on the course as we have cleared all of these today.

We're checking a working on the route today. If needed, we'll place one or two pumps along the route if you want to spray down your bike.

The sun is shining and it's a beautiful day in Robertson. Tomorrow also looking really nice.

Hi CJVDM. Late entries available on the morning before the start.

Weather Forecast: Sunny but cold for Friday and Saturday Friday max: 14 Saturday Max: 15 - going to be a cold start at about 7 degrees! Gear up appropriately!

Jip Marko, we do provide a choice this year....bottle of wine or a medal. I think the wine is the better bet! I'm biased though.....

Hi Jaco. The 57km profile attached to this events page gives you an idea of what it would be like. As mentioned, we had to tweak the route a bit so it's not exactly the same. There is an added bit with a newly built road that was done for the Epic but not used. You will be the first to ride it. The 57km will be a real tester!

Worked on the 57km yesterday. Had to reroute a section onto brand new track taking you on a section that has never been ridden before! The 57km is going to be awesome but really tough! Please only attempt if you are experienced!

Hi Jaco, The course does drain quite well and should be fine by Saturday. Should be in good condition.

Second Forecast: Fair weather for Friday, Saturday and Sunday! Looking good....

Hi guys. Thanks for the comments on the early start. We'll certainly take it into consideration for next year. It's the first time that we're hosting the longer distance so we'll learn from it and improve next year!

First Weather Update: Thursday and Friday are both looking sunny! Let's hold thumbs for Saturday....

Seems like most people are keen to hang around afterward. if the weather is dodgy we can pull everyone into the shed! We'll also make sure that there is non-alcoholic beverages for those that need to take the wheel.
