Chris NewbyFraser Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 What sort of terrain does the route cover? OK for gravel bikes?
Griffin Posted January 18, 2018 Author Posted January 18, 2018 That would be dependent on your skills There is Howick Trails singletrack and Karkloof Trails singletrack in the mix. None of it is hectic but a MTB would definitely be the better choice (especially Day 2 and Day 3)

EmptyB Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Are the prices for the event on the website a mistake? R7200 for a team of 2 ? Great sounding event but not if that's the price.Plus accommodation... works out to about half the price of Sani2C. Less riding but dunno what else to compare it to....
