Navworld/WTF MTB Race

The BoutTime WTF MTB Challenge presented by Navworld is named after the famous Strava section in Pretoria East called “WTF”. This section is a 1.5km climb with an average gradient of 6.1% and ascents the rider by 95m. This Strava section is used by many mountain bikers to prepare for events like the Cape Epic, Sani2C, Cape Pioneer and has been ridden almost 30,000 times by 2,500 riders!!!

Wessel Botha is currently the record holder with a whopping time of 3:52 done in 2016 at an average speed of 23.7km/h and in 2nd place Thinus Redelinghuys with a 4:17 and 21.7km/h. The most WTF repeats record is held by Barend Burger who rode WTF 34x times in 5 hours, this is 3,301m elevation in 109km during the annual PEMBI (Pretoria East Mountain Biking Initiative) WTF challenge supported by Navworld & BoutTime.

Most MTB races around Pretoria East takes place on the northern side of the Bronberge so we had the idea of doing things a bit different from 2015 onwards. The route will remain the same as last year until WTF, from there it will become totally different as we are designing a new route with much more Jeep Track, singletrack and will be a bit more challenging. This race will be a proper MTB race with 3 distances, SASeeding, marshals, medics, instant results, position, K/QOM's, Sponsors, prizes, BOERIE ROLL & DRINKS included in entry fee(also available at a minimum fee for the public & supporters).

Hi there

I thought the GPS files were going to be released? Trying to decide on which distance to go for.

[Paulst12]

Is this a multiple lap route or one single loop?

[janneman72]

i saw on the site that the profiles were published. GPX files on Friday it seems. These guys don't do lap races, it will be like the Mahala Magic. Ingaadi MTB section is going to rock, did you see their post on facebook?
