DescriptionTwo World Heritage Sites (seweekspoort and swartberg pass), one dam, 18 hours...get your bikes ready for the ride of your life.

 

From the creators of Bigshot Media comes an all new ultra mountain bike adventure that will take solo, team and relay riders through some of the most varied and tough, yet beautiful, parts of the Klein Karoo. With the emphasis being placed on endurance this event seeks to test mans, and womans, ability to cover a variety of terrains while at the same time having the physical and mental stamina to go the distance.

The event includes 213km of desert, mountains, roads, trails and paths. Unique to this event, used only once a year by our entrants, participants will be ferried across the untouched Gamkapoort Dam. Check points will monitor progress over the distance while supporters will be able to meet up with their champions at two points along the route. These two points will also serve as relay change over for those not brave to take on the full 213km of grit, gears and sweat.
