News bot Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 If so, the ninth edition of The Amarider 100Miler, presented by Bike Hub is the perfect race to get it done. Held in Malmesbury on 20 May, this race is the ultimate Swartland meander offering dirt road riding around the Kasteelberg and surrounds.Click here to view the article
Suidwes Boytjie Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 What the total elevation for the 50miler?
Stevo9119 Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Trans Drak this weekend, will be my first over 200km.
openmind Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 The 100 Miler is a great race, but it's hardly "off-road"! Just look at the pics - lovely groomed gravel *roads* The only real technical challenge is picking the right line through the corrugations, hehe!
dee_biker Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 One of my favourite rides, but at R580, it is becoming rediculous!

David Sutcliffe Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 This is very tempting. Like day 1 of the Stanford Tour, except 3 times longer
Skubarra Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) One of my favourite rides, but at R580, it is becoming rediculous! I don't know, done it twice, for some reason I find this race very bland despite labeling myself a dirtroadie. Maybe doing this for the first time a week after an awesome Sani2C experience spoiled this race for me permanently. Maybe this race lacks that signature feature other dirtroadie races have, like a Baviaanskloof or a Swartberg pass, it's mostly nondescript rolling hills through farmlands on corrugated roads. Anyway, I guess you have to do it at least once to find out for yourself, this one already ticked off the list for me. Edited February 28, 2017 by Skubarra

Mamil Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Hmmm .... don't like corrugated roads much - Maybe this race lacks that signature feature other dirtroadie races have, like a Baviaanskloof or a Swartberg pass, it's mostly nondescript rolling hills through farmlands on corrugated roads.
Skubarra Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Hmmm .... don't like corrugated roads much - Hehe, this race is an exercise of keeping your eyes on the road for hours on-end trying to find the least corrugated line..
