I see from the North West province's website that the Groot Marico MTB Classic is being held on 18 August 2012. I remember this being an awesome race in the past and am keen to do it again. Anybody have any idea who will be hosting online entries?

Love this race, not the usual RARA noise and a very pleasant area to spend the weekend( and really only 2 and a half hrs from JHB). There are 9 river crossings, some up to thigh depth and I could literally bend while carrying my bike and drink the water, it is that clean.

I don't know where the entry is though, but I'll be entering for this yr. for sure, so I'll let you know as soon as I do.

Jip, very nice event. Will do it again this year. And that local pub is a really great place to meet the local (and get a kudu steak)

One of the best events around.

Just enter on the morning.We do and just drive down from Gabs and back in the pm.

At least I hope we can still do that :ph34r:

My favorite race!

 

If I remember correctly it was through entry time last year, but the race is so small you can always do an entry on the day.

Make a weekend of it! Its always great fun.

Good news to fellow MTB riders.

 

The Marico MTB race is on the 4th August and is listed on www.entrytime.co.za

 

Mowana Game Lodge & M & G Koelkamers who sponsor our mobile cold room to keep all the drinks well chilled at Vori Berg MTB races have been kind enough to make there lodge available to us for the weekend of the Marico MTB race.

 

It is not totally free but we have accomodation for 36 persons at a rate of R200-00 (normally R250-00) per person per day.

We have to book the entire lodge for friday and saturday night.

 

 

So let's make it a weekend and enjoy it and meet some new friends that enjoy our sport
