South African Cycling Tour - HOW TOUGH WILL THE RIDING BE?

We are never in a rush to get from Point A to Point B. This itinerary has been designed for everyone to be comfortable. We will always have a support vehicle for guests to use if needed.

Most importantly, we are here to Live the Ride safely and take in the beauty that these incredible landscapes have to offer. If necessary, we will offer 2 different ride groups.

The trip covers a combination of road cycling on bitumen surfaces in Cape Town as well as non technical gravel cycling on mountain bikes in the Cape Winelands and the Game Reserve.

Difficulty of this trip is rated at 3/5. We are not riding vast distances on a daily basis, and there are plenty of breaks and stops along the way.

The gravel cycling is not classified as “technical”. However, we encourage everyone to take their time as there will be some elements that are more difficult than others, which includes a few ascents and descents on gravel surfaces. The gravel conditions will generally be a little more adventurous to what you're used to. Therefore, we encourage everyone to ensure that they are familiar with riding on gravel terrain and have the required level of fitness to support their riding skills.
