canfan Posted January 14, 2014 Share They did the same thing 2 years ago. Entries eventually only opened first week in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubarra Posted January 14, 2014 Share I see its a new venue . Hope they manage to come up with a more interesting route as well. Will probably skip this year though, done enough zig-zagging through the same vineyards the last 2 years.

Not instilling a lot of confidence. Don't worry, its not like the road version that sells out in a few days, you will have more than enough time to enter raptor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know the details? I wasn't planning to enter this year as I am also tired of the vinyard zig-zaging and especially after the experience of the last 10kms of last years 75km route.

No idea where&how the new routes will be, only that the longest will be 55km, so no 75km this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FCH Posted January 14, 2014 Share Not sure if half of their site is still 2013 info with some 2014 in between- but the maps on the website www.mtbchallenge.co.za still indicates Boschendal.@Skubarra, i am sure you are 100% correct on entry Oufy MTB (Roadie) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky4130 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Guys I see the entries have opened. Mine is done see you all the Sunday.Website only allows you to enter the two shorter routes & not the two longer ones. Which distance did you enter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr X Posted January 20, 2014 Share Very nice new route! MUCH better than the old route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr X Posted January 20, 2014 Share The route looks like basically the Delvera mtb trail plus the trails used for parts of the BurgerMTB and the new Dirtopia trails on the western side of Simonsberg. Potentially much more singletrack than the old route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumpmeister Posted January 21, 2014 Share Milky just have a look on the site and enter the Sunday race. All the routes are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny Bravo Posted January 21, 2014 Share I really want the special medal you get for completing both the 55km mtb and the Cape Argus road race the following week. But that 55km looks incredibly tough, also dont want to injure myself before the big race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
