With just two weeks to go until The Absa Cape Epic, Route 66 is a must if Epic is on your radar, and it’s perfect “Altitude Training”.
Planning for something else, such as The Leverage Corporation’s special 3-Day stage race called The Investec Great Kei Trek taking place in the Eastern Cape at the beginning of May? Then the Luxliner Route 66 Experience is a must-do in your training schedule.
But…. It’s not all about the 2-Day event. You have so many choices…
If you can’t join the full weekend, Sunday’s one-day rides are your chance to experience the best of the Route 66 trails — world-class riding through the heart of the Magalies mountains, with just the right mix of challenge, scenery, and satisfaction.
Choose your distance. Pick your adventure.
