I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
I rode the Absa Cape Epic in 2013 and loved it! I have had terrible FOMO every year since then so I am super excited to finally be racing again! The Absa Cape Epic is the world's premier MTB race with soem of the toughest stages in an amazing part of the country! The strength of the field is also phenomenal. These elements combine to create an exciting challenge!
Best Results:
2nd in the solo category at 2015 Cape Pioneer Trek
1st in the National MTB Series Marathon in Ballito and Dullstroom in 2015 and 2nd in Clarens
1st at the Tru-Cape MTB race in 2015

I entered the Absa Cape Epic...
I did my first two in 2012 and 2013 and have always wanted to come back for more. So I'm here to chaperone Ryann "Tuckbox" Dean through his first time
Best Results:
I've done two Epics to date, but my highlight would have to be coming in the top 35 of the Wines 2 Whales race in 2015. My new bike is also a highlight
