Momentum Medical Scheme Cape Pioneer Trek Adventure presented by Biogen

The Momentum Medical Scheme Cape Pioneer Trek, presented by Biogen, continues to evolve and in its tenth edition it will undergo arguably its biggest change yet as Dryland Event Management introduce a four day taste of the Race with Soul: Momentum Medical Scheme Cape Pioneer Trek Adventure, presented by Biogen.

Running concurrently to the main event the Cape Pioneer Trek Adventure will start on the 17th of October 2018, in George, and conclude on the 20th of October, in Oudtshoorn. The stages will include a time trial through the forest singletracks of George, the traditional ascent of the Montagu Pass and crossing of the Klein Karoo to Oudtshoorn, the Queen Stage which concludes at the summit of the Swartberg Pass and the Grand Finale. In total the route will cover roughly 300 kilometres and provide riders with an intoxicating introduction to the world of week-long stage racing.

Riders entering the Momentum Medical Scheme Cape Pioneer Trek Adventure, presented by Biogen, will take part in the solo categories and there will be no racing awards, to help keep the focus on enjoying the experience.
