Wet Ears Posted June 6, 2017 Share Website/links do not appear to be right - or is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Ears Posted June 6, 2017 Share Only heard cool things about this race but battling to get info as website does not seem to like me. Do all days start and end at Mankele? If not any idea as to the overnight stops? Keen to enter but would also like to try and book some accommodation as keen to bring the family along? Any info/advice would be greatly appreciated.

carbon ghost Posted June 6, 2017 Share All days start and end at Mankele. If you want to bring family they can also camp there in their own tents. It is really awesome ride, tough hills but the decents through the bush tunnels are out of this world. Best value for money stage race in my opinion.

Wet Ears Posted June 7, 2017 Share I have only done 2 stage races, namely Cradle Trophy (is that even a stage race) and Sani - assume this is tougher? Edited June 7, 2017 by Wet Ears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Hubs Posted June 7, 2017 Share I promised myself I would do this race again! My first Stage race...totally unprepared for those climbs and the DOWNS!!! Would love to have a crack at this now with my eyes OPEN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Meyer Posted June 7, 2017 Share Have you come right on our website? I know there was a problem on most sites yesterday. I checked the 3 Towers site and all looks good. There is also an old fashion "print entry form" on the site. if you don't come right then mail me mark@mankele.co.za oh yes, families are welcome to camp at Mankele. Book with Christelle (ride@mankele.co.za) See you there. Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted June 7, 2017 Share I have only done 2 stage races, namely Cradle Trophy (is that even a stage race) and Sani - assume this is tougher? Depends how you define tough. If lots of meters ascent is "tough" for you, then it's tough. But as for the riding experience... I have not experienced better. spy and Grey Hubs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Ears Posted June 8, 2017 Share That is pretty much how I would define tough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted June 8, 2017 Share Lots of time to embrace the climbing, because every meter you go up is rewarded with seriously smile inducing flowing singletrack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Tinie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Ears Posted June 9, 2017 Share Still trying to get over (excuse the pun) Iconic on day 2 of Sani! That hill has made me extremely climbing averse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W@nted Posted August 17, 2017 Share How much climbing is there per stage? Looking forward, first stage race! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
