ABSA Cape Epic 2017 - partner wanted (Mixed category)

Hi,

 

Finished the Epic in 2013 and want to do it once more in 2017.

 

I'm a girl, now 33 years old - 177 cm - 63 kgs :) Riding a 29" S-Works.

 

My partner opted out for his personal / life reasons but I'm still hoping to do that and have already been training hard.

 

In 2013 I was based in another country and didn't have much opportunity for training because of the season and life priorities, so the goal then was just to do that to the finish. Finished 37 out of 64 teams in our category but it was snowy winter in my country and a lot of office work so we didn't really train properly :)

 

Now I have the experience and much more time & opportunity to train so I'd like to finish in the first half of my category, but really hoping for even better than that. And have a loot of fun as well :)

 

I'm based in Cape Town and riding about 3 times a week (including at least 1 long ride during the week-end). Doing & planning the weekend races whenever possible as well.

 

I have an international team entry but, if you are from SA, you can pay only the SA amount and even do it in parts - it's more important to be able to train together from time to time and prepare properly.

 

Looking for someone who is as eager as me and who is thinking of success as our only option :)

Hi Kate,

 

I'm looking for an Epic partner too and also live in Cape Town. 35 years old, 60kgs, riding a Specialized 29'er  ^_^ Been riding 13 years and have tons of MTB experience, fitness and skill, but most of all cherish the sheer enjoyment of riding.

 

If you would consider a female partner (and we could ride together anytime) please contact me on 084-452 9603
