tubed Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 Looking like it might be another week (March 9) following snail trails on computer screens, the list of participants should provide some delightful entertainment - lots of characters in there. Cant wait. http://www.freedomchallenge.org.za/index.php/current-event/rtc-2016-participants

Dusty Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 I was lucky enough to do this last year. One of the best section of the Freedom Trail. Can get wicked in the rain/mud though.

Shebeen Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Hard to believe that nearly a year has passed since the inaugural Freedom Challenge Race to Cradock took place - well its almost that time again and this year's event promises to be bigger and better. The start list has 46 riders going off in 6 batches.The first event was an 'invitation only' affair but this year it was opened up to anyone, so among the familiar faces are some totally new names eager to test out the Freedom Trail for the first time. The event is also scheduled a week earlier than last year, in an attempt to spare the riders from the heavy rains which fell last year and are common in late March in the area. However, the prevailing drought and dry conditions currently being experienced could mean that the heat might be more of a factor this year. As the riders complete their final race prep, pack their support station containers and make last minute tweaks to their bikes and equipment, we look forward to the start on 9 March and to another year of adventures on the Freedom Trail.
