The Houw Hoek Tour is a non-competitive 2 day MTB stage event. The objective is to give MTB’s and newcomers to multi-stage events (NOT NEWCOMERS TO MTB) the opportunity to enjoy a weekend of scenic, fun and non-competitive riding. However, make sure that you are fit as each of the two stages are approximately 50 km, mostly on gravel roads (including jeep and single tracks) and that you can and love riding single tracks.

 

 

Event Dates: 5 & 6 May 2018
Start venue: Houw Hoek Inn, Elgin
1st Finish venue: 6 May – Houw Hoek Inn 
2nd Finish venue: 7 May – Hermanuspietersfontein Winery at Wine Village at the Hermanus & Sandbaai robot intersection

 

Looking forward to another lekka weekend at the Houw Hoek Tour this coming weekend - this will be my 5th Consecutive Tour - have rope in a couple of Stage Racing newbs and pulled WAGS who will be doing some Trail Running while the rest shred the trails. Anyone else in for this?

This was my 5th Houw Hoek Tour and probably the best ever. Very nice new ST introduced on day 1 with the 1st section 7 kms from the start. Great value for money and a lovely vibe. Well organised. Well done to Johan and team!
