The 2020 edition of the Cape Pioneer Trek will see the route retain its focus on diversity and rider enjoyment which has turned it into one of the most highly anticipated events on the mountain biking calendar.
Due to popular demand, the race directors have added an extra day at Louvain, shifting the action more into the remote mountainous areas of the Langkloof than ever before. The seven-day event from 6 to 12 September 2020 will cover a whopping 462km and incorporate 11 250m of elevation gain. Riders will also have the privilege of being unleashed onto virgin trails that are currently being constructed for the #RaceWithSoul.
In 2019 the weather withheld from riders the honor of facing up to arguably the most desolate and yet breath-taking section of the Cape Pioneer Trek.
The gorgeous Chandelier Game Reserve is still on the menu for the day but will have a trick or two up its sleeve. The stage is all about having fun and is a celebration of the achievements of the week gone by. A fast race to the finish at the Queens Hotel draws to a close what will be a never to be forgotten experience. Stay tuned for more updates on the race.
