East Cape Cycling Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Event Name: Fat Attack Beach RaceWhen: 19 February 2016 - 22 February 2016Where: Coega, Port ELizabeth, Eastern CapeCategory: MTBFat Attack, a 3 Day MTB stage race from Coega near Port Elizabeth to Kidds Beach is the 1st of its kind and is Unique to say the least. Unique in the fact that you have 2 options, bring your own fat bike or rent a brand new one from Red Cherry. The rental option means you don't need to drag and destroy your own Fat Bike through Salty rivers and Sandy dunes and be exposed to a hefty bike repair bill. Also no hassle of transporting bikes to Start and from Finish...Its easy and by all means, bring your own saddle and pedals. s also unique that you need to ride dressed for the beach. NO LYCRA PANTS ALLOWED and your entry will include awesome stylish MTB Baggie Pants. 3 nights Accomodation. Thurs in PE before start, 2nd night in guest houses at Kenton and Bushmans and 3rd night at Mpekweni Beach Resort. Entries are limited to 40 Teams and 20 Solo riders.Go to Event Page

Skubarra Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Sadly I have 30kg more to carry than my riding partner.... Well if your partner is the oke on the left who didn't get the memo that this race is for fatbikes - you might just have a slight edge.... Anyway, enjoy! Looks like great fun, have added this race to my (way too long) bucketlist of races

Cat2forLife Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I think the organisers may have a few bikes available after the race. Do you know that the organisers can provide you with a bike? That'd be really cool. I didn't know that. Might just take a drive down there!
