A dozen Bicycle couriers update until April fools day
A quick update of what we have been up to on the blog front this year. Lots has happened. In fact, more so then ever before for Q1 of a bicycle couriers year. But we don’t get time to write about everything anymore. Se below is what we have done since the last update in 2025. Which read 25x for 2025: The last Bicycle Couriers update this year
Epic
Was this the single best bicycle couriers update in 2026? In a last minute ABSA Cape EPIC entry we confirmed taking part in this year’s race just 3 days before the start and it was also Chris’ 10th(!) EPIC so quite an achievement. Have a look at It’s happening: team CYCLOTOURISM at the ABSA Cape EPIC 2026

Bolandcycletour
The bicycle couriers update that opened so many other doors. What kept us busy during the months of February and March this year? Sending many bicycles. But being able to do so while taking part, nay, organizing and taking part, in the BOLANDCYCLETOUR. Let’s do so again. See BOLANDCYCLETOUR from 16th February till 8th March 2026
Titan racing bikes
There is no denying that TITAN racing bikes are stellar value for money. Also judging by the number of my mates who have bought them. And there were all transported on bicycle couriers. Have a look at Meet the titans: the TITAN RACING bike range
Less is more
The words keep flowing and the bicycle keeps on being delivered. Every single day. All across the country. But this year we decided to focus more on other parts of the business. Other than purely online. Which is what we have been doing since inception, and this machine is now working. And working very well. A rolling stone gathers no moss.

Epic service packages
With Francois from MANIC cycles who departed this world too soon and left a huge gap in the community and the market. Other people are now entering his prime EPIC service packages space. And I saw a number of familiar faces at races this year. including SPECIALIZED outlets from Stellenbosch, Paarl, West Rand, Lynnwood, BFN and many more. ABSA Cape EPIC service packages for 2026

Trailseeker dates
Oh how I loved stage 6 of the ABSA Cape EPIC this year which covered so many of the same tracks as the initial TRAILSEEKER from January this year. Albeit in different order. The singletrack remains the same. And it was something to behold. Now you can also do the same for next year. Check out the FORD TAILSEEKER: Dates for the 2026 series
Cool runnings
Something completely unrelated to cycling. Or is it? Because if dad was away for so long on cycling trips then it is about time that he entertains the little ones. And what better outing than one of these where you get to play and laugh with them. Great fun. Check out KIDS: grab your parents off the bikes and go to COOL RUNNINGS
