Event Name: Muratie Mountain SeriesWhen: 31/07/2022Where: Muratie Wine Estate, , Stellenbosch, Western CapeCategory: Mountain BikeExclusive route for intermediate mountain bikers only. This event will be a singletrack experience of 48km and will take limited pre-entries only. 1850m of climbing - options to ‘bail out’ earlier... More than 25km of singletrack with 50% of the route not normally open to public. Dirtopia’s partnership with Muratie has a history – just like the old-charm feel on the ‘werf’ of one of the oldest wine farms in South Africa. The warm hospitality of Muratie and the Melck family love of nature, have welcomed trail users on their land and there is no better way to experience this than at the Muratie Mountain Series event. This time only one route is on offer: a 48km singletrack experience for intermediate riders only. We do not need to describe it in detail. All you need to know is that it is a beautiful ride that you can feel privileged to take part in and will remember for many years to come… Go to Event Page.

That is without the liaison stages that you have to ride of course...

That is a permanent tag that you can use at all the events though...

Not recommended, but it has been done before...

A lot of trail options and riding near Greyton next weekend. Hear the single track is awesome. Dirtopia's site states pre-entries close on Tuesday, so better get moving to get that T-shirt in Dirtpass!

So who will be riding at Delheim MTB event on Sunday? Nightride on Saturday night too. Really fun single track on Simonsberg...
