Cullinan2Tonteldoos [POSTPONED]
Considering the COVID-19 pandemic and following the stringent requirements enforced by government banning mass gatherings over 100 participants, Advendurance regrets to announce the postponement of the Cullinan to Tonteldoos Mtb Ultra. The ban spans 30 days starting 18 March and as such this event falls within this period.
The new date will be announced in this week and entries will automatically be transferred to the new date. Due to the costs already incurred for this event and in accordance with Advendurance’s refund policy, refunds can unfortunately not be made, but substitutions will also be available.
This turn of events is completely unforeseen, unfortunate, highly annoying and beyond our control and Advendurance appreciates everyone’s patience and understanding in this matter.
The Cullinan to Tonteldoos MTB Ultra Single Stage event will take riders and their support crews over 260km of unmarked district roads. The journey starts from Cullinan in Gauteng to Tonteldoos, a small settlement in the Mpumalanga Highlands. This race takes your through unspoilt scenery from the old-mine village on an open gravel road that will both challenge you mentally and physically. This race is especially exceptional because it takes you from the afternoon straight through to the next day. The race village at the finish has a beautiful setting in the Highlands where participants and supporters can truly relax after the challenge and long day spent on your saddle.
