Event Description:
Vanrhynsdorp Funduro 2018
THE ROUTE:
Expect gravel rocky roads, 2 gravel road mountain passes, water crossings, minimal sand on route of approx. 50km
The setting for this event will be mostly in the Klein Kobee region near Vanrhynsdorp, 300km north from Cape Town. The route stretches over two rocky mountain passes, through and over a few hills, some water crossings (depending on rainfall), nice open stretches and seasonal wildflower veld. Sand on this route is almost non existing and would make it ideal for novice to medium skilled riders to join. A red loop section will be optional for the more adventurous riders. The total loop distance will be around 50km.
Warning: The two mountain passes encountered in this route is quite steep, has NO barriers and very rocky in some places. We urge ALL riders to be extremely careful when ascending and descending through these stretches.Rather take it slow, stop and enjoy the scenery as often as you like.
Please note that there will be 2 start times for this event. If you intend to ride the route twice, you will need to join the first group.
Coffee and pancakes will be sold at the starting point in the morning and braaivleis for lunch. Cold drinks will be available to buy throughout the day. There will be a lucky draw in the afternoon sponsored by Dirtrider Motorcycles.
The Vanrhynsdorp Funduro 2018 will be a charity fundraiser like every year! This Year the revenue will be donated to CANSA!
