The Tanqua Kuru

Bicycle Race.

 

A two-day fully supported gravel bike race in the heart of the Tankwa Karoo. There quite simply is nothing like it.

The race has been specifically designed to test a modern gravel bicycle, however, our aim is to bring people who love bicycles together.

We want to be as inclusionary as possible, so we welcome any type of bicycle to take part.

29 May 2021 - Day 1 – 110km
