The Absa Cape Epic has worked hard and invested considerably in developing its reputation as the world’s foremost mountain bike stage race.

The race continually strives to offer an unparalleled rider experience both on the bike and off it and it has full-time staff which service the needs of riders and stakeholders around the year.

South African riders will continue to pay their entry fee in the local currency.

The cost of staging the Absa Cape Epic and maintaining the standards that have been set, have grown considerably in recent years.
