| Route & Profile |
The Akkedis: 57km, Total Ascent 1664m
For the fit and technically advanced rider only!
This year it's a new route - a 7km warm up lap brings you back past the starting point at Beloftebos, before you head off on a 550m climb over 10 km, to the Vodacom Tower at the top of Salmonsdam Nature Reserve. Stunning views and the first water point. The road is 4x4 jeep track and steep in places, but rideable. 4km fast downhill - take it easy!
The next 15 km is fairly easy on jeep track, farm roads and through wheat and lupin fields, before the second water point. Then start the second climb of 400m over 8 km, heading home. See that you've kept some fuel in the tank for this one. At the T-junction, last water-point and nice fast 2 km section of jeep track, before you hit a lekker downhill and head back to Beloftebos
The Klipspringer: 35km, Total Ascent 777m
First 25 km is on open dirt road and jeep track, taking you through fynbos, dairy and wine farms. Enjoy your surroundings as you ride. Head back to Beloftebos and turn left for a 10km loop on the Paardenberg Farm. The 4km uphill feels like forever, but turn around and take in the view once at the top. There are two fast downhills. Please be aware of runners on the same route
The Geitjie: 25km Race
Same route as the 35km, except for the last 10km loop on the farm. Lots of fun and plenty of time to relax afterwards at Beloftebos
Die Tor:5km Fun Ride
Easy ride for the kids and for parents to walk. Enjoy the fynbos and fresh air on Paardenberg Farm. If you are feeling energetic at the end do it again!
