In celebration of cycling and community spirit, the Lupus Classic, a highly anticipated family-oriented mountain bike and road bike event, is gearing up for an unforgettable edition on May 11 this year.
Hosted at the scenic Flamingo Casino in Kimberley, the event promises a day of exhilarating challenges, camaraderie, and family fun, starting at 6am.
Time flies, that’s for certain, so there’s no time to waste for those who want to be part of this incredible event; participants are being encouraged to register as early as possible for the event, and there is something for everyone.
Solo cyclists have the opportunity to test their mettle on three different types of bikes: mountain bikes, road bikes, and e-bikes, with two distinct routes to choose from: 40km and 92km. The 40km route offers a scenic journey for those seeking a more leisurely ride, while the challenging 92km route is tailor-made for pro riders looking to push their limits.
The Lupus Classic is not just a race; it’s a well-equipped event designed to cater to every rider's needs. Ample water points, professional photographers capturing memorable moments along the route, and the presence of ER24 for medical support ensure the safety and comfort of participants.
Designed to cater to both professional riders and enthusiastic hobbyists, the Lupus Classic emphasises safety and well-being. Organisers have spared no effort in implementing comprehensive measures to ensure a secure and enjoyable experience for all participants.
Adding to the appeal, the event boasts a lively atmosphere with good vibes, refreshments along the route, and a festive ambiance at the Flamingo Casino venue. Riders can expect a memorable experience that goes beyond the thrill of the race.
Entries for the Lupus Classic close on May 9, 2024. Race pack collection is scheduled for May 10, at the Flamingo Casino from 12 noon to 5pm.
Participants will receive their event packages, including race numbers and other goodies, during this time. It’s important to note that no late entries will be accepted, so enthusiasts are encouraged to secure their spots before the deadline.
