Thanks! Will do. and yes, the spelling mistake was me typing on my phone 🙃

I saw this. Looks great too! however, we are already entered for the race 😐

Thanks! I sent the first one to info@tourdecap.co.za and the second one via the contact form on the website.

Does anyone know if this race is taking place next year? We're a group of 4 that registered and will be traveling from Germany to take part. The riders list has not been updated in many months - it still does not show our entries. I've emailed the organizers twice already but no response.

ETA in cape town, between 5 and 7pm tonight!

Jonas is getting close the SA border, well on track to break the record! https://capetocape.maprogress.com/

No small feat what they are attempting. Here is an interesting video on the solo Panamerican challenge that he did as well. There are some seriously dodgy roads out there... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChKSzzH7-Rk

I recently went to a talk presented by this guy, Jonas Deichmann. Really impressive what he has achieved in the past! His latest record attempt is currently underway with the aim to go from the Nordkap in Norway down to Cape Town in 75 days! I am in no way affiliated with him, just met him once at his talk and thought it would be interesting to share on here. You can follow his progress on social media or on his website. Might even be cool if a group of people would join on the last section of the ride (not sure about the rules etc though...) https://jonasdeichmann.com/ https://www.facebook.com/JonasDeichmannAdventures/

Hello Everyone, I have a friend who likes to hit the gym quite often and hence weighs about 105kgs... He and his wife are looking to start cycling and want to buy MTB's. His budget is about R 10 000 - 12 000 per bike. Currently he is looking at the Silverback Sola 2 or the Scott Scale 960 but he is a little concerned that he might be to heavy for these?? what do you recommend? any suggestions or other options he can consider?

where are you from?? anywhere near Gauteng? contact Johan Bornman

understandable! hope you get a team together.

ok we are in Potch, so I guess that rules us out? but if you are keen, pm me and we could arrange something? you could have a look on the timing company's websites to get an idea of how we ride.

where are you based? I'm keen and have a friend who will be as well?

I dont have much info I know the place its the same place where the "Parys Island Dirtmax" mtb series is held, perhaps check on entrytime if you can get some contact details of someone? sorry man.

jip you are right nowhere... Potch is really not nice for mtb, we have a few places but nothing too exciting though. if you're able/willing to travel a bit you can go to Parys (40km from Potch) there is a trail there.
