Ceres National Offroad 16th October-Pics

by Russel Zeeman | Tuesday, 04 August 2009 |

The preperation for the National Offroad taking place at Ceres is well underway, with the marking/planning of the track already started .
One of our National riders....Dirk Swenke is helping with choosing the terrain of the track, and i am attaching pictures so you guys can get an idea of what sort of terrain to expect.

Note that this track IS NOTHING LIKE SWARTBERGVLEI, which you rode last year, while Swartbergvlei is on the Westcoast and near the sea...hence sandy, Ceres is inland, about a 100km past Paarl, and set among mountains, so there won't be all those whoops of last year.

It looks like its going to be an awesome track, and i will shortly be posting a list of acomodation in the area....so please keep an eye out.

Clint Reiper went to Cers last weekend to check the track:

Just so you all now I was at Ceres on Saturday to see what was going on and to

satisfy myself that the arrangements for the event are going to be up to scratch. I think the venue is great, the main DSP and others are more than adequate. The

track, of which I only did loop A, is a good all round course with the right mix to

make it a memorable event for competitors and is going to be a least 80km long.

Loop B is also going to be just over 80km and from the feedback from Tim Jordan

who did most of it, it will also be great.

so, its looking good that we are going to have an awesome race.
