November: it’s almost the end of the year and it is also a busy month before the crazy holiday season starts. Time to reflect, plan the next chapter and generally getting ready for summer. After months of lockdown stress, we would like to see you bloom as you get fresh air in the outdoors…the flowers are still out in bloom too!

ROUTE DESCRIPTIONS: This is a fast course between the vineyards with great views and beautiful Wineland scenery. The long routes also use the neighbouring farm of Nooitgedacht terrain, so you’ll get some singletrack in the forest, jeeptrack through the vineyards and winding roads between the orchards. Relax on the lawns at the dam after the event and perhaps sip some of the Estate’s Cap Classique Rose or Brut.
GENERAL INFO: Pre-entries will receive discount and a medal to all finishers! The refreshment station will have Powerade, some banana pieces in skin and cold water with Coke at the finish for all. Stay for the lucky draw and stand a chance to win products from FALKE, wine from L’Avenir and vouchers from Sportsmans Warehouse!.
Coffee will be for sale and food options from L’Avenir kitchen.
AMARIDER TRAIL TAG: Runners will be timed with an Amarider Trail Tag
No Tag = No Time. Winners (only timed runners) must be back by 09h30 for prizegiving.
Late entries and changes to reflect by Monday evening.
Runners also have the option of renting a temporary Amarider Trail tag at R20 and will be given to you at registration with your race number. The temporary tag will be taken off at the finish line. If you’d like to buy a permanent one, it will be R100. Permanent tag holders must wear their red tag on the right wrist.
IMPORTANT!
1. Only run with your own TrailTag
