Quite excited about all the new additions and the fact that this is the 10th edition.

 

Hoping they find a title sponsor soon. This race deserves a big sponsor.

2 day is a great event. Easy logistics and good quality weekend riding with superb hospitality. Entered again, wouldn't miss it. Buffaloes on the rampage.

What are your thoughts on entering the 2 day race? It sounds quite expensive for what is essentially 2 outrides of not very great distance.

 

Basically, what would normally be two R160 weekend race marathons is now going to cost R3700 per person. Is that price justified by the riding? (I don't consider the tented village as a factor because, aside from the jorl, for that price, a local hotel would be affordable).

 

So basically, is the 2 day race worth that whack of cash?

In for the 2 day this year, lets hope its a blast!

It will be a blast........even your GPS will prove this. You will reach speeds of up to 50-60km/h with your bike.........no effort.........on WATER..........

 

The usual boat crossing alone is something special to experience as part of a MTB race.

this will be my first Great Trek as I have done the 2 days twice and looking for more millage.

 

Don't forget that the price includes meals and the food is good not 5* but it is good.
