South Africa’s toughest 1-day race!

There’s nothing quite like suffering on a bicycle for hours and hours to discover the real you. Manners, diplomacy and empathy are peeled away, layer by layer as you pedal your way deeper into a state of exhaustion. Questions are brief and answers seldom longer than one word. Swear words seem very appropriate. This is how you are likely to find yourself after 240 km at the Cullinan Ultra-Gravel. With just 20 km to go.

Just 20 km to go, but… BUT it’s a 20 km climb! Your lower back is aching. Your neck and shoulders are tight. Your gears aren’t shifting smoothly. You’re tired of drinking and eating sweet carbs. You’re covered in a sweat-caked layer of dust. Your one eye is stinging. Your hands are sore. You can feel chaffing in the crease between your butt cheek and hamstring. Your sense of humour is in a coma and you’re feeling a little weak. Although you don’t acknowledge it at the time, this is your happy place!

Limited to 500 entries this year, you and a trusted riding partner will embark on a life-changing gravel-grinding odyssey from Cullinan to Dunkeld Country Estate. Unspoiled scenery, open gravel roads and a tough 20 km climb to the finish on already-spent legs make this race the toughest of them all.
Do you dare? If so, we’ll see you there!

260 KM | 3,200 M ELEVATION | 24 HOURS
