Rumour mill churning out whispers of miles upon miles of district roads and jeep track crammed full of sweaty MAMILs walking their bikes down gradients of 0,1%, washed up sporting celebs, corporate newbs and doped up vets.

I think it is a nice plus if you are an "out of towner" as Welvanpas is awesome and riding the Epic gives you the opportunity to experience that trail.

 

As a local, meh, I can go ride it whenever I like - but that is true of just about every nice bit of the Epic nowadays. us Capetonians are just too spoiled...

You do know it is cheaper to fly to CT for a weekend and ride welvanpas several times and fly back.... than ride the epic.... :)

 

I am just hoping they include Skyfall again - really enjoyed that bit - not so much the bit after that...
