Wine2Whales - how technical?

[Spinnekop]

Once you've done W2W you'll never want to do Sani again. Your own tent for two nights, much prettier scenery, hot shower at the finish, I could go on.

Done 1 W2W.

Was forced to walk along my perfectly working bike.

Not impressed.

 

The course was boring compared to Sani's singletrack.  

Day 2 on the Sani is the best day on 'n MTB that you'll ever do in your life

 

On the technical side, W2W is a bit harder in the sense that there are more rocks and the paths are less manicured.

You can see that as good or bad (if you like to rough it up MTB style then W2W is a bit more mountainbikery)

 

W2W accommodation beats the Sani hands down.  Own tent.  One venue.  It's easier on the body after the ride.

 

Both unique events with unique experiences.

Hi Guys,

 

So its my first W2W in October. Any recommendations: 

 

 

1) Accommodation in the area close to the start and afterwards at the finish?

2) Bike shuttles down from JHb to CPT (Preferably to the event)?

 

 

Thanks

 

Joggie for the transport.  Excellent service and looked well after our bikes and he made logistics and communication very easy!!!
