Our GravelGrinder's are three day cycling, social and culinary adventures in South Africa. It's a formula that has been refined to a tried and tested format with the hundreds of cyclists and non-cyclist companions we have hosted over the last five years.
We are happy to announce our new tour venue, the Overberg GravelGrinder based in Greyton!
Itinerary Overview of our tours.
Arrive on the designated afternoon and check into your thoughtfully selected B&B or hotel in Montagu, Prince Albert, Graaff-Reinet, or Greyton—your base for three nights. That evening, join us for a memorable welcome dinner at a top-tier restaurant, where you’ll meet the team, review the itinerary, and indulge in superb cuisine and fine wines, all part of your package. Each day includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus wines, at standout local restaurants and charming coffee shops across these iconic towns.
Over three days, ride 60–70 km through the Western Cape and Karoo’s most awe-inspiring landscapes. Our buses and trailers whisk you and your bike to each ride’s starting point, supported by water-point teams with local treats and hydration, sweep vehicles, and ER24 medics for peace of mind. Expect dramatic vistas—rugged mountains, sprawling plains, and vibrant flora—unique to each region.
Through expert planning, we immerse you and your companion in the essence of these towns: their cuisine, history, culture, geology, plants, and wildlife. The morning rides strike a perfect balance—invigorating yet leaving afternoons free to wander historic streets, browse local shops, or soak in the ambiance. E-bikes are warmly welcomed and often the preferred choice, blending effort with enjoyment. This isn’t just a ride—it’s a curated adventure across Montagu, Prince Albert, Graaff-Reinet, and Greyton, designed to leave you with stories and sensations that endure.
