Munnik Meerkat MTB Race

Until: at

Location: Pietersburg Rotary Club

Details:

Good news for the region’s mountain bike cyclists is that the annual Munnik Meerkat MTB Challenge, presented by the Munnik Farmers’ Association, is around the corner once more.

This year, the popular race will take place on 25 March and both the 70km and 35km will serve as qualifying races for Limpopo colours. A day-license fee of R35 is only payable if cyclists do not hold a valid CSA license.

Once again, Pietersburg Rotary Club 100 will be catering for the event and will start serving food from 06:00. 

SA Breweries will be hosting a small beer garden throughout the day. As usual, two mountain bikes are up for grabs in a raffle (one men’s and one ladies’ bike). The starting time for the gruelling 70km race (R220 entry fee) is 07:00, with riders setting off at 07:30 in the 35km race (entry fee R140). The starting time for the 10km fun ride (entry fee R60) is 07:45 and the 3km kiddies ride (R30 entry fee) will set off at 08:30.

Race Time will be doing the official timing of the event. For online entries, visit www.munnikmeerkat.co.za. Cyclists can also pre-register at Cycle Centre in Louis Trichardt on Thursday, 23 March, from 15:30 until 17:30, or on the day of the race from 05:30.  For more information, phone Felicity Oldreive (083 450 2003), Charlotte Knott (082 456 3097), Lisa Ivy (082 802 3688) or Johan van Dijkhorst (082 740 8740).
