Cycling South Africa Calendar

How fortunate are we to cycle in sunny South Africa? With over 150+ events listed here, there is something for everyone. Disciplines include MTB, Road, Track, Youth Para-cycling and even BMX and it is across the whole of South Africa, from now until the end of 2023. Oh, and this chap in the picture above in France, he is so happy because he heard he can come and cycle in South Africa 🙂
