Fantastic route and very well organised race. My 5th PEPLETT and definitely not the last. New sections of trails built specifically for the race every year. It just gets better and better.

Gorgeous trails and views, fun but challenging route, with hospitality on point as well. The positive rider comraderie along the 280kms of forest trails and backroads carried us through heatwaves and rainstorms, technicals and tumbles, with stories to tell.

Weekend Warrior Tru-Cape events has become are our ‘must go to stage races’ of the year.
As cheap as you will ever get for a stage race experience.
Day 1- nice & hard with some 'trail fun' reward coming home.
Day 2 - to die for… fun fun fun - berms, jumps & fast flowing dense forest single track that don’t stop (keep them for next year please).
Big shout out to the Endurade water stations - friendliest crew around. Good quality energy & electrolyte drinks & bars. Drinks are ice cold every time every year. Love the solid ‘old style food for champions’ like the bread sandwiches & bananas.
Good food good trails.
Can’t wait for the next one.

Fantastic four days on the MTB. Made extra special by the Red Cherry Team. Thank you once again Mike and Shaun and the rest of the guys and gals for a spectacular few days.

This was my third PEPlett and is was the best by far. The organisation was superb. Getting Food Lovers on board was genius. The villages are well laid out & the staff kept them immaculately clean. The new sections of trail were also a big surprise. You want something challenging but not unsafe. I really enjoyed every day.
You can treat this event as a serious race or, as I prefer, a fantastic ride with good friends with time to stop & take a photo or two.
Mike, Sandy, Shaun & now Jacques are a class act. Definitely be back next year!

If you want to feel special, do the 'M&G' PE Plett.
Our accommodation was excellent and the routes magnificent. Best marked routes ever. You just could not go wrong. Distances and elevation very accurate. Stunning system of where you fit in at start with coloured bands. The vegetation and views made it extra special as well. I will definitely do this event again.
