2019: 45% of the field scratched

2020: 21% of the field scratched 

 

I guess that was expected with the extreme heat and wind from 2019.

munga - R23k

I was sceptical on the cost until I took part in Munga. You get fed, watered, and treated like royalty across 1,000km of the most barren and empty terrain you're ever likely to see. I came away not thinking about how expensive it was, but how they did so much and took care of each and every rider so well for the price. Honestly, it's a once in a lifetime adventure - when you finish it, the last thing you will ever think about is what it cost.

Hope this is allowed - but I'm very pleased (and surprised) to say I finally got my arse in gear and wrote the Munga book my late buddy Theunis always nagged me too.

 

Amazon have eBook and print copies for international folk:

But there will also be a local South African print copy run which I'm just finalislng the proofs for. Message me direct or reply if of interest.

Happy to say the South African "Mungral" print run is done. Copies are in store at William's Bike Shop in Somerset West, or via online order page if that doesn't work for you: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScvyMQDaCBtDfQPCTgyJNK8-tSWeBIuHs-8-1uPlhcl9EOMtw/viewform

I also received my copy of the book over the weekend and could not put it down. It is a fabulous read for both prospective Munga entrants and past finishers. Rob has a great way of telling the story and sharing his experience in an authentic and unpretentious manner. I loved all of it!
