Sunday, 1st November 2026
Van der Stel Sports Ground, Stellenbosch
42 KM, 100 KM, 173 KM
173 KM will start from 06h00, followed by shorter distances.
An ideal pre-DC training ride to figure out who’s hot and who’s not in your team. We will be there and would love to see you all out on the road. Failing that, swing past the ECC van and gazebo for a post ride drink and race debrief. Perfect place to let those in your team know who needs to panic train and who can ease off.
See you there.

Close enough to make it a quick race-day day trip and a cool enough place to bring the family and make it a weekend away.
This race has been built from the ground up. Fresh, real and personal- you WILL have a great time.
