1. INTRODUCTION.
iALA Educate & Stilbaai Cycling presents the annual WINDPOMP MTB & GRAVEL BIKE Event at STABLES on 23 December 2023.

The WINDPOMP MTB event started in the years when we were very much aware of the droughts in the Southern Cape. Windpomp Sjerrie refers to water.

The 60km route will include gravel, a small section of tar, 200 meters if sand and 3km of single track.
