Got our entries for the Houw Hoek Tour (second year that I am doing it). It is such a well organised tour (not a race as there is no official timing involved) Would really recommend if you want to get exposed to some stage racing. The Houw Hoek Tour is a non-competitive 2 day MTB stage event. The objective is to give MTB’s and newcomers to multi-stage events (NOT NEWCOMERS TO MTB) the opportunity to enjoy a weekend of scenic, fun and non-competitive riding. However, make sure that you are fit as each of the two stages are approximately 50 km, mostly on gravel roads (including jeep and single tracks) and that you can and love riding single tracks. Event Dates: 6 & 7 May 2017 Start venue: Houw Hoek Inn, Elgin 1st Finish venue: 6 May – Houw Hoek Inn 2nd Finish venue: 7 May – Hermanuspietersfontein Winery at Wine Village at the Hermanus & Sandbaai robot intersection It is probably 80% of Day 2 & 3 of the w2w trails
