Munga 2025

[Hennie Nel]

Afternoon ,

I have entered for the Munga end this year and would like to know. Are there any one who did the Munga before that would like to share some info.

I am staying in Centurion, and if you are willing to share, can we meet for coffee if you are in the area to have a chat.

Thanks.

Hennie

There usually is a whatsapp group, you will find good information there Hennie.

I did a blog of my 2022 experience, but I think I still have to complete the last day or so of riding. Maybe this is a good excuse to revisit that. I will most likely do the Munga again next year. It was by far the best thing I ever did on a bicycle, I am sure you wont regret it.

Man this is cool. I have a small itch but I reckon it’ll be a few years.

Sid, you could also let this percolate for quite a few years - you have lots of time - it will change you

Yeah I am keen but that amount of time off is hard to come by. Would be cool to be a pro! 🤣

Not this year unfortunately - S.O. has 50th birthday celebration and so I'll be reading race reports not writing them -- next year though if all goes to plan.

Yikes. That’s a good setup if you don’t mind a sore arse or saddle sores 🤣
