I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
I entered the the 2015 Absa Cape Epic in support for my good friend Jason van`t slot who has Cystic Fibrosis. Furthermore I like epic events that are a great challenge. I love nature and competitions and this event is as challenging as it can get for a mountain biker which excites me very much. A few years ago I looked at a book about the Absa Cape Epic and said to my girlfriend that this is an insane event and I would never be able to do this. Now I find myself entered for this insane event. Very exciting.

Best Results:
1st place at the mast challenge 2014.

Multiple 1st places in running events.

Top 5 in Triathlete events.
