I LOVE DOING THE COURSE FOR THIS RACE !!

 

I try changing the course every year , and so far its been easy ...... there is just so much riding in this area .

 

So im out riding stage 2 onthe weekend , trying to link up to the amatola basin i discover a sweet 3km single track running along the river

built by my friends the nguni cattle . STIHL have to clean it a bit . The riders are going to love it !

 

A word of warning again , Hogsback is not flat . Do your hill training .

 

Will keep you updated ,

The Arminel Hotel is full, but there are still a few spots in VERY nice hotels.....(some even closer to the start finish area)

will be posting a link soon to a list of other accommodation spots in Hogsback that you can book yourselves in if you take the budget entry option.

singles .

 

We will consider taking theese entries , but there wont be any prizes or official catagory for single riders.

 

We will assist them to hook up with new mates for the next year :w00t:
