As I said many times during the event, everyone is awesome! The organising team, the captains and their support making sure everyone enjoys the ride, the very brave motorbikes, and so many other “givers” from food to accommodation etc. and of course the participants!The healthy competition and most of all the inclusive and group spirit in everything was amazing, I felt right at home with all of you! Well done and thank you, I left with strong legs and a full heart ❤️

An exceptionally well organised and well run 3-day event with a unique format. Situated in an idyllic location with fantastic roads and scenery. A great way to spend a weekend.

The Cape Classic is a brilliantly organised event in a magnificent setting. The team keeps us well fed and safe on the roads and the little challenges on each day keep the riding interesting. I’d highly recommend this event and can’t wait to be back.

Would highly recommend this event as a perfect 3 days of glorious cycling in the Breede Valley and surrounds in a very chilled and friendly atmosphere. A fantastically organised event.

Great organisation and staff and the vibe is awesome. Made many new friends and had a blast of a weekend. The format is something different and is really enjoyable. Having the racing sections in between the social riding for those who want to give it some gas is awesome as you get to satisfy the racing snake within, but still get to have so many laughs along the route and get to connect with everyone in the bunch. The water points and lunch stops are out of this world and you really get treated like a king. This event is now a fixture on my calendar and I cant wait to go back.

Thank you for the most amazing weekend of riding and eating.  I didn’t have to think of anything other than riding my bike.  Even had reminders to put sunblock on. So well run and such an amazing experience, I actually cannot wait for next years event.  Thank you for everything.
