nadesdan Posted June 3, 2019 Share Someone recently mentioned there will be a new Challenge race (biggest competitor to Ironman) later this year in Cape Town on 10 November. https://challenge-cape-town.com/ Thought people might want to know.

Dirt Tracker Posted June 3, 2019 Share sure I've seen this movie before! https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/101960-challenge-cape-town-2011/?hl=challenge+cape+town Just replied on that then saw this.

reteid Posted August 5, 2019 Share why is this thread so quite? maybe the lack of comments is showing me not to enter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadbod Racing Posted August 5, 2019 Share I was all super hyped up at this event, but the race details took forever to be released so I've decided to do Cape Ultra this year. if Challenge CT is succesful I'll do it next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@ndy Posted August 5, 2019 Share I'm entered. As a pretty average climber on the bike I chose this over the Cape Ultra or Race 2 Stanford. I hope this one doesn't get canned if the interest is low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted August 5, 2019 Share Will also wait and see and consider doing next year if it is successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted August 5, 2019 Share Could not find a more boring 90km in Cape Town for the bike leg... good luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtypot Posted August 5, 2019 Share Up and down the same piece of flat road? That is so dull! I'd be keen to try out an event like this, but the route for the ride and the run leaves a lot to be desired, as does a swim at Big Bay. Brrrrr.

Roguemeister Posted November 10, 2019 Share So with those waiting to see if it was successful to do it next year, is 325 entries successful? To those who did it, how was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
