Wow this is awesome. Id love to do something like this! Well done!

Thanks MtbGirl! There are shorter races if you'd like to give it a go - there's one coming up at the end of August by the same organiser: http://kinetic-events.co.za/Events/Full-Moon-Kouga

 

And there's a new series of five 24 hr adventure races around the country called the A1 series - it has spread to South Africa from New Zealand and Australia: http://www.adventure1.com.au/races/south-africa/

Well done Chuck.

Really enjoyed the write-up and the comical style.  Makes it sound like an awesome event despite the hardships. 

It really was epic.. There were a few times I wondered what the hell I was doing there, but as you can see, our team has some humour stashed away for just those moments.

 

Next up, Reunion Island in November!

I had a good chuckle about the sing of pearl jam songs! Respect man! hardcore.

The race encompassed, among other things, around 390km of riding in the Cederberg and Namaqualand region, which was amazing. I just want to go back and ride there some more, under more leisurely conditions.

It was pretty awesome....

Sounds like you guys had an amazing time out there! Thanks for sharing!
