I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
It has always been a dream to participate and complete Cape Epic since I started mountain biking in 2012. I obtained my entry for 2014 Cape Epic, but finally wasn't able to go due to family issue months before the race. My partner Derek found my replacement and had been racing 2014 and 2016 CE. 2017 is his 3rd time racing CE, and he decided to invite me for the chance to complete my dream.

Best Results:
my first ever Epic stage race was in 2013 BC Bike Race - Canada (DNF due to injuries)
Finisher 2013 Breckenridge Epic, Colorado. USA
Finisher 2014 Swiss Epic, Valaise, Switzerland
Had been waiting for my chance to go Cape Epic, finally happening in 2017!
