Montagu Gravel & Grit Festival
There are this year THREE distances to choose from:
- 140km Gravel Race
- 100 kilometers
- 55km’s fun ride
Putting this route together has had many challenges but with help from landowners and a few seasonal gravel riders we managed to put something truly spectacular together. Makadas Adventures, MATA & Africa Game Lodge presents a route….. that is truly out of Africa. Magical, special, unique, and diverse are words that comes to mind.
