And just like that, it was over. Four unforgettable days along South Africa’s breathtaking Garden Route. We rolled out from St Francis Links in St Francis Bay, riding past Oyster Bay and climbing above Clarkson before descending the Phoenix Trail into Assegaaibosch. From there, the route carried us over Kareedouw Pass and deep into the Tsitsikamma Forest, with nights at Tsitsikamma Lodge & Spa beneath the trees. The final chapter delivered iconic Garden Route scenery as we crossed Bloukrans Bridge, rode through Storms River Pass and descended into Nature's Valley. Over 268 kilometers, more than 4,000 meters climbed. A sold out field for the third year running. More than a race, it was a shared journey, and the real finish line lives in the memories made along the way.
