KNYSNA CYCLE TOUR - CYCLE RACE (KNYSNA, WESTERN CAPE) 5th July 2015

We don't get to blog about too many Cycle Marathons, or MTB Marathons for that matter, 4 of each a year at most, mostly because we realize that 'foot-work' is far cheaper and more accessible, but for those that can, this is another ultimate, its a gorgeous but tough race, set in the most stunning location and its part of an entire festival. Its awesome, its fun, it for everyone. (And if its not within your budget, start working towards including this into your bucket list, like we said before, even if you have to hire a bike.)

Please meet....

Our main reason for wanting to enter any event, besides the obvious challenge, is the beauty of the surroundings and the peace, inner calm and total joy & exhilaration that the combination of all of these facets brings to ones life.

This race is one of those prime examples, its set in the most exquisite locations in the world, let alone South Africa, and its a seriously incredible race.

The Momentum Weekend Argus Rotary Knysna Cycle Tour is a two-day festival of cycling for the whole family, and it takes place in the beautiful Knysna, which is the heart of the Garden Route in the Western Cape. Its a preier event of the popular annual Pick n Pay Knysna Oyster Festival, which in itself is one of the best thigs you can do in your life, TOTAL BUCKET-LIST COMBO!!!

Join thousands of serious, and not so serious, riders for a weekend of great riding pleasure. You select the race you want to compete in, according to your abilities and interests, and just go for it.

This year the events take place over the weekend of the 4th & 5th of July, and include Mountain Bike Events, Road Race Events, Children's Events & Family Events

We are particularly interested in the Road Race which includes a massive 109km race, and a relatively doable 50km event.

The 109 route includes 1,577m of climbing and has been designed to keep one enthusiastic and competitive all the way to the finish line. The 50km route is a milder version, but as awesome and will keep one as enthusiastic and challenged...but the choice is yours as to how you ride the race, are you in it to win it, or just complete it...?!

This really is one of the most beautiful races, find out more @ www.knysnacycle.co.za but hurry....time is already running out.
