Saturday morning Farmers breakfast...mid morning Enduro ride...Saturday evening Beer 'n Burger at the local pub...Sunday morning back on the trails for a 40km singletrack blast. 

 

Why you even still only thinking about it ? :)

Hmmm... this looks interesting!

You will not be sorry. Fun is guaranteed.

Just a quick heads up... we will be offering a reduced package entry fee if you wanting to do the Howick Classic Enduro and the Howick Classic 20km/40km. Enduro is on the Saturday and 20km/40km on Sunday.

Will there be any new trails, or using the current infrastructure?

Now that would be telling ;)

 

On the Enduro the Stages are made up by joining existing trails (but not in the way you would expect!). These are not the trails that were used in the Oct 2015 Enduro. The plan is to expose the riders to other trails that are just as much fun and still a challenge. 

 

Along with the previous Enduro routes this also then gives us 6 mapped down runs that can be used anytime

 

For the 20/40km Classic the routes include new trail sections and existing trails that haven't been used in the Classic for about 4 years
