Tim_Fair Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 Event Name: NISSAN TRAILSEEKER #2 CullinanWhen: 6 July 2013Where: Oak Ave, Petra Diamonds Mine, Cullinan, Gauteng, GautengCategory: MTBDate: 06 July 2013 Venue: Oak Ave, Petra Diamonds Mine, Cullinan, Gauteng, South Africa Terrain: Farm lands | Dry | Arid | Savanna Elevation: 1400m | Ascent: 70km - 900m / 40km - 500m / 20km - 250m / 10km - 100m. Participant Limit: 2500 (70km - 800 / 40km - 1000 / 20km - 500 / 10km - 200 ) Features: Hand built trails | Bridges | Cattle track | 4x4 Trails | Dirt roads Race Summary If you take to mountain biking like women take to diamonds, do not miss this race! The route traverses areas inaccessible under normal circumstances due to diamond mining (come try your luck), and that is not all! Winding single and jeep tracks take you through pristine areas and over river crossings where you can still stop and drink the water. The route options are 70 km, 40 km, 20 km and 10 km each with its own excitement. The long distance route takes riders through areas where wild game roam, and even past lion. You ride on the verge of a massive water fall and through a cave - you will not find better mountain biking than this! Over and above the family fun offered by the NISSAN Trailseeker Series, the town of Cullinan comes to life, catering for the hordes of mountain bikers! Whole-day excitement is on offer, and everyone in the family can have a share. Great meals, snacks and beer to quench your thirst while sharing the story behind your battle scars with your mountain bike buddies, are available at many of the quaint restaurants. Jumping castle and face painting looks after young kids, and we'll look after your bike and wash it, for a donation, while you relax with a professional massage or rub-down.

divernick Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Entered 70km SS. Last year's race was my first 70 ever and I cramped from 40 to the end in over 4 hours, in that stupid wind. The race got the better of me last year, not so in 2013. Bring it ON. This time, it's personal. XXL, Pants Boy and MTBc 3
