7 City Cycling & Athletic Club are travelling all the way from Cape Town to be the hosts of this WP Cycling Road League event.
The route is a mixture of rolling hills on the one side and a flat sometimes windy section called ‘Waaihoek’ on the other side. The race will cross the Breede River by using the low cement bridge. The weather looks great for Sunday so we shouldn’t experience any problems with the river crossing.
