E-BIKE FRIENDLY

You are welcome with your E-Bike, a full suspension is a MUST. Lesotho's trails are technically demanding and you should be comfortable with riding up and down steep and narrow single track. Regardless of which bike you ride, this is NOT a ride for beginners. The longest stage is approx. 75km and should you require an additional battery you may give it to the water point crew.

NOT INCLUDED

– Airport transfers to/from Maseru International Airport (MSU), Johannesburg O.R. Tambo (JNB) or Bloemfontein (BFN)
– Transfers to/from the start of the event for riders WITHOUT their own vehicle
– Alcoholic beverages at the base camp
