Not for the faint hearted this one! Don't even think of it unless you are reasonably experienced and fit. The route will be approximately 40 - 45 Kms. The race will start at the High School as in previous years. The first 18Kms has most of the climbing with some hectic single track thrown in. Once down “Gums” then a nice gentle climb to the fire tower before flying down “Catherins – Rushalot”. Then just a small climb back to “Wattles” to cool down before “Home Jerome” an awesome bit of nice flowing single track. To finish this year we have had a new bit of track cut by Nick Floris to get back to the school.
If you don't enjoy hectic single track rather do the 20km intermediate ride. There is single track but not hectic.

We set this one up for those who prefer to toddle along on quiet country roads. No fuss, no bother but still challenging.
Red Brick Road will get your heart pumping and some of the downhills too, but there is just a small amount of very easy single track to make things interesting. Perfect for the less experienced mountain biker.
For the Mountain Bikers of tomorrow. 5km - easy - safe - along the Umgeni River and lead by one of our club members - a nursing sister.
