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.
Itinerary Overview
In short, you arrive on the published date in the afternoon and check in to your B&B or hotel room which you stay in for 3 nights. You then meet us for dinner at a top notch restaurant where you will be introduced to the team, itinerary, fantastic cuisine and great wines that are all part of your package. Every day involves breakfast, lunch and dinners and wines at local restaurants and coffee shops.The three days of riding are each between 60 to 70km in length through the most spectacular terrain in the area. We have buses and trailers that take you and your bike to these ride areas, supported by water-point teams, sweep vehicles and ER24 medics.
Through meticulous planning we ensure that you and your companion have an immersive experience of the area, its cuisine, history, culture, geology, flora and fauna. The cycling is challenging but still allows time to explore the town and attractions after the morning ride. E-bikes are welcome and have become very popular on tour.
