Event Name: Namaqua MTB Challenge 2013
When: 26 October 2013
Where: Vredendal, Western Cape
Category: MTB

 

Route description:

 

The 57km route consists of about 90% jeep track. The climbs are mainly rocky and technical. Rewarding views of the Olifants River valley awaits the effort. Some fast down hills with hair raising bends. This route requires fit and experienced riders. Good climbing skills are necessary. Rocky hills and sandy tracks will definitely test your skills and abilities.

 

The 40km route is mainly jeep track. The climbs can be rocky in some places and also very steep. At the top of the climbs the rider will be rewarded with stunning views of the valley and surroundings (if there is time to look around). For fit riders this will be a walk in the park, for the not so fit it will be harder, but an unforgettable challenge.

 

 

The 27 KM is aimed at the riders new to the sport and is a easy ride through the veld and the 10 Km is for the kids and follow a loop through the vineyards.

 

 

 

PLEASE NOTE:

 

 

 

There are a lot of thorns on this route. Please do not ride without slime and tire liners or tubeless wheels.

Lyk lekker taai ou mater! Weet jy dalk wat totale klim is?

So +- 1200m. Dit lyk erger as wat dit is, maar nie een van die klimme is gladde pad nie. Almal moet jy werk om bo te kom.

So n stukkie van die roete.

So n lekker klipperige downhill vir die manne wat hou van tegnies ry.

[Breezer]

Ek het vanoggend weer die roete gery en n man wat nie tubeless, slime of tire liners het nie gaan nie die roete klaarmaak nie. Moet asb nie sonder dit kom ry nie. Daar is baie duwweltjies.

Daai klippe lyk ook lekker skerp. Jy sal maar jou lyne mooi moet kies anders stap jy huis toe

Ek het vanaand die laaste single track gegrawe en dit lyk baie nice. Die roete het drasties verander en is baie meer tegnies as verlede jaar. Kom geniet dit!
