Originally created to continue the development of routes and to showcase the incredible network of single-track trails on the Simonsberg Mountain\, the region has become a hotspot for trail runners and mountain bikers alike through the continued support of Fairtree Capital. \nDirtopia has spent the last 5 years developing new routes on Delheim\, Muratie\, Warwick and Uitkyk wine estates. These trails are now operated in partnership with the landowners with the Greater Simonsberg Conservancy being the primary beneficiary. The conservancy represents more than 20 farms around the mountain and is currently focused on a multi-million-rand alien clearing project to return large tracts of the mountain to fynbos and renosterveld. \nThere is no better time to be out in the winelands as harvest season will be in full swing in surrounding vineyards. The MTB two-day event will take place on 2 & 3 Feb 2019 with a 60km and 40km route on offer for both Saturday and Sunday\, with the two day’s riding taking place on separate trails on the vast network. Do both days\, mix it up or do only one day – your choice! \nThe event will start and finish on Delvera Wine farm where riders and runners will be treated to breakfast the morning before the activities start and lunch once you’ve crossed the finish line. As always there will be a wonderful area to relax after their ride\, with showers\, a bike park\, bike wash & lube station and a massage service on offer. There will also be a kiddie’s entertainment area with the option for supporters to join for lunch by buying a food ticket. And yes\, great coffee and the best beers will be served on the day. \nEach participant will receive a goody bag and coffee\, breakfast snack and daily lunch buffet. Good refreshment stations will be fully stocked with cold drinks and a wide range of savoury snacks and fruit. \nThe Fairtree Contour events have been created to continue the development of routes and expose the incredible network of single-track trails on the Simonsberg Mountain. With over 30km of mountain singletrack\, connecting more than 10 wine estates\, the region is a hot spot for mountain bike trail riders. Parts of the route will also be used in the 2019 ABSA Cape Epic Stage 6. \nEarly bird entries have already opened.

The new (improved) route sees riders stick to scenic routes along the beach; through open plains; and through some wooded kloofs. (The sandy\, rutted tracks of the past have been ditched for faster off-road tracks).\n• After camping at Cape Agulhas for the Saturday evening (families welcome to join) riders tackle the shorter 93km return route back to Danger Point. \nIn addition to its own unique community and family-based flavour\, The L2L is the ideal training ride for those who have entered endurance events later in the year.
