Winning times for 2014 were faster than 2013, so come see if you can beat Jason Meaton's 1h38:41 and Jenny Opperman's 2h05:27. Start: Grahamstown - Pennypinchers warehouse (off Rautenbach Road)Finish: Port Alfred - Rosehill Mall (just off the R72)Start time: 8h30amCut-off: 1pm The route takes riders over Mountain Drive, past the Toposcope, down through Woest Hill pass and on through Southwell, to some neat bush and farm-style single track, before finishing at the coast. But, riders beware: it's not all downhill! There are a couple of good climbs which will make or break the race, and there is some serious technical jeep track to negotiate on Mountain Drive, especially on the downhill past the Toposcope. However, the course is suitable for all kinds of riders. G2C takes place on the last day of the National Arts Festival, so Festinos, bring your bike!
