divernick Posted June 4, 2013 Share Just saw this, anyone ridden it? Thoughts and opinions? 3km climb.... sjoehttp://www.thehubsa....m-the-boys-r709 That looks good. I know I started this thread, but I have entered the Nissan Trailseeker at Cullinan. Last year it was my first ever marathon-distance race and it broke me properly. I cramped from 40km to the end. Not so this year, I am doing it to get the monkey off my back and set a hugely improved time. Last year I did over 4 hours. I am hoping for a sub-3:30 this year. Single speed of course....

Janels Posted June 6, 2013 Share Did the 2 River MTB Challenge last year and next to Rooiberg it is by far my second most favorite race. The description posted above is apt, it has 35 kms singletrack heaven along the river. It is similar to the last 5 kms of the first day of the Berg and Bush descent along the banks of the Tugela River (Garden of Eden). The koppie was close to the end of the race and took quite a lot of effort due to its position in the latter stages of the course. The hospitality of the Bothaville community is fantastic and the race is followed by some great entertainment, Boeresport and various arts, crafts and food stalls. For the non-cyclists, last year there was also a cross country horse ride and a running/walking trail race. Altogether a very enjoyable day only about 200 kms away from the big smoke. Will be back.
