Nissan Trailseeker #3 Hemel & Aarde
We are glad to announce the third event in a new series of four events in the Western Cape, that will make up the offical Western Cape Marathon Mountain bike series for 2015.
The series is targeted at the young, the novice and the family but also for the experienced rider. The routes are aimed to be fun and friendly, no technical and specialised bits that only the pro's can ride. The series caters for those looking to get into mountain biking as a sport, the weekend riders and the family conscious.
With great TV coverage, good prize money with provincial points up for grabs, the serious riders are drawn in to compete into a festival of mountain biking.
The third event of the series takes place in Hermanus, where in the last two years a whole mountain biking revolutions has taken the little town by storm.
Back when the Cape Epic first came through the town there were just open sand roads that some mountain bikers did training rides on. Now with the help of Wines 2 Whales, Jan van Schalkwyk and some other passionate mountain bikers have been building trails that are reshaping the landscape around Hermanus! Making it a mountain biking playground that's second to none.
Choose the idyllic life with sea, sun, whales and mountain biking! We'll bring great meals and snacks, while you share the battle scars and war stories with your mountain bike buddies.
