All we've heard is that there will be a longish prologue, and that the stages will be approx 140km. But thats about it.

Racing Hart ..how accurate is your info? Where did you get it from? Did you ride the U/16 tour last year in Harrismith? If they are using the same routes, yes, then it will be challenging.

Racing Heart - no stage in jnr catagory for tours can be longer than 132kms.  The second stage starts in Fouriesburg via Clarens, turn towards and end in Clarens - 118kms.  (the original plan was to finish in Harrismith - but then it would be 140kms and this does not fall under the UCI regulations - thus they had to shorten the route to finish a the safest possible place for the riders)

The Sat monring stage is 80kms long, starts in Harrismith - just before Glenn Reenen we turn left and do another 3km climb to finish on the top of the mountain

Krit is 40 mins plus 1 lap in Phuthaditjaba, the sam afternoon.

 

Last stage starts in Harrismith, Kestell, Phuthaditjaba, finish in Harrismith - approx 112km.

 

Proloque - unknown currently - the original plans were to have the same route as the under 16 tour - that will be a 1.8km proloque with a slight uphill start and dragging a little to have a downhill finish.
