Headshot Posted September 2, 2014 Share Flippit, man I can hardly contain myself. The suspense! Where will those pampered pro's go to hammer more district roads into submission. Far more interested in the Munga route and race. LazyTrailRider, Odinson, Smurfy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I FLY Posted September 2, 2014 Share I have not done this race for a few years now and have no intention of going to do it again. So I don't get excited about the route reveal and would certainly not attend the launch function. I will look at the route profiles and destination towns closer to the race for interest sake in the same way that I look at other big stage races in RSA. Is there still the hype and buzz for other riders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris NewbyFraser Posted September 5, 2014 Share The Cape Epic is so very same old,same old and is likely to become boring and result in less repeat riders as the years roll by, over the same routes. Time for Epic to start travelling, for the Epic Journey to hit the trails. Depart from Lourensford, say goodbye and start travelling up the coast to Durbs and then on to the Mpumalanga region. Make this a multi-year year Journey, ending in Cape Town for the 20th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
