Would absolutely love to do it solo again but its now double the cost of what I paid in 2013

I rode solo this year, awesome experience but it is getting very pricey unfortunately

Fully agree. You can go on a 7 day all inclusive holiday, including flights for less. Something doesn't add up.

If anyones selling or knows of someone selling a team entry please let me know. Foolishly I didn't think they would sell out so quickly.

I see solo is 28 500 and a team entry (for 2, I assume) is 24 800. I can see how solo can be the same price as team - but struggling to see the maths behind more expensive?

I think it is R24k per person in the team. R48k for both?

Website says 24k for the team.

 

From the refund policy: 

• If you are entered as a team and one rider cancels the other may ride as a solo and pay in the difference for solo price

[Plentipotential]

How can it be more than double the price if you are a single rider? R 28500.00 per person to sleep in a tent for 8 nights? Must just be me who thinks this is madness because the event is sold out.

I wish I could do this event again soon.

Loved it in 2015

As I read and understand it:

 

• Team of two entry – R24800  (per per person per team)
• Solo entry – R28500 (obviously solo entry)

Why I say that, we did a team entry in 2016, and that's how it panned out.

[Wannabe]

I wish I could do this even again soon.

Loved it in 2015

 

So would I. If all my schemes work out, 2020 will be my year. 

[Ramrod]

Just managed to get an entry. Woohoo!

Yeehaa! I've been lucky to be offered a complimentary for J2C after someone withdrew. Super excited for my 1st and hoping to learn a bit more here about what to expect.

[Wannabe]

Expect the best 9 days on a bike, of your life.

Dont give everything on day 1 like i did. It is not timed per se and going flat out will cost you in days to come!
