Entries to the Savanna Origin of Trails MTB Experience, one of Stellenbosch’s most iconic MTB races, are open as it gears-up to mark its 10th anniversary on Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 November.
“We can’t wait to celebrate 10 fantastic years of mountain biking at the 2023 Savanna Origin of Trails MTB Experience,” says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports and Founder of the event.
“It goes without saying the 10th year celebration will be one for the records. Stellenbosch’s vast network of world-class and exclusive trails will always be the foundation of the event which already makes it fantastic, but this year we really plan to shake-up the vibrant city of Stellenbosch by bringing the ‘MTB Party’ home.
“As a Stellenbosch-based sports marketing agency we are proud to promote the building and maintenance of MTB trails in Stellenbosch by supporting the Stellenbosch Trail Fund (STF).
“STF continues to go the extra mile to ensure Stellenbosch’s off-road community get to enjoy world class trails on their doorstep. We’ve been supporting the trail fund since the event’s inception in 2013 and are proud to continue showing our support in 2023.
“Join us in the festival village located at the Coetzenburg stadium and get ready for an unforgettable celebration both on and off the bike.”
Affectionately dubbed “South Africa’s MTB Party of the Year”, the Savanna Origin of Trails is an individual two-Day MTB Stage Race that highlights the beauty and splendor of Stellenbosch.
Mountain bikers will be treated to a vast network of world-class and exclusive trails while celebrating the origins of South African mountain biking.
