Event Description:
Moorreesburg Funduro
The circuit is short at 36km but is double that of last year, so expect some new terrain. You can ride the track as many times as you like. There are lots of stone sections together with uphill & downhill sections. If there is rain beforehand the wheat fields may become mud fields and dongas! There are some technical sections that will be challenging. There are no river crossings and little sand.
There is also a kiddies track and is always within sight of the start.
This is the same route as last year but with a different starting place and a few extra kilo’s.
Coffee and snacks will be available to purchase.
How To Enter
Please prepay. Download the entry form here.

As short as it may seem, the Moorreesburg Funduro is a great little circuit. There are some interesting climbs and descents, some of which can be challenging. It’s a great technical loop, so make sure you complete at least 3 circuits to improve your skills!

Hi there,
just to let you know a lot of people are put off by the short track! firstly there is going to be a lot of traffic with people of different ability’s doing multiple loops and secondly its not nice to do loops, a longer track is far more interesting. people even complain about the new 35km loops all the funduros are doing now.
just something to consider.
enjoy.
Hi Joshua,
It’s hard to disagree with you on that. We much prefer a long track too.
The organisers say there a several technical sections on this year’s route so that may make it more interesting. We will ride the event anyway and provide our feedback after that.
If you do ride this event, please be sure to rate the event and provide your feedback on this website. That way the organisers will know for next time.
