Induna Posted January 14, 2013 Share Event Name: The First Ascent Big Induna Mountain Bike ClassicWhen: 1 June 2013Where: Induna Adventures, Hazyview, Mpumalanga, MpumulangaCategory: MTBInduna Adventures is calling all mountain bikers for a life changing experience!! How much fun can you have on a mountain bike? The answer will be found on 9 June at the 2012 First Ascent Big Induna MTB challenge in Hazyview, Mpumalanga. Team Induna is working around the clock to perfect rider & spectator satisfaction by adding more value to the venue and dishing up a route with a difference. This is your opportunity to ride in a unique and spectacular environment. Forget endless fire road and jeep track climbs where road bike endurance more than MTB skill prevail, the First Ascent Induna MTB Challenge serves up an entirely different menu to get your teeth into! Characterized by hand cut trails snaking through indigenous forest, the course serves up a mind-blowing mix of short sharp climbs, rock shelves, rooty drops and fast bermed switchbacks, throw into this a few shallow water crossings and even some single tracks beaten flat by hippos and you will not regret taking up the challenge! Making the race even more enjoyable is the Lowveld’s warm winter climate, a welcome break from the chilly highveld, camping at the venue will be comfortable and the race atmosphere festive. This is truly a Mountain Bike race for those of us who want the full experience, a race where skill and determination can outrace and outwit just mere fitness. An epic mountain bike race isn't defined by distance alone, it’s a bellyful of thrills, a mud splattered grin and the satisfaction in your own personal victory! Give your bike what it really wants, and what you deserve!Please visit website for more infoGo to Event Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owti1997 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Hi IndunaCan you clarify which of the 2 different courses you show for the "36km" (first half of 73km marathon) is correct please? The garmin plot by 7hendrik77 goes around the sabi river sun resort and has a long section at start and end of route on the same track (the first google earth map under route description also shows this), whereas the 2 individual google earth plots for the half and full marathons differ in that the route does not go around sun resort and a long loop at the start is missing...PS marathon course looks outstanding. never ridden the area before and doing a little homework.....
