Not just a bike ride but spiritual journey often alone on wide open roads with awesome views and the only sounds being your breath and the birds. A life changing experience, all made possible by the care and special attention given to you by organisers who will feel like family afterwards. If you enter expect your life to never be the same again!

Wonderful organization – and the water points and An-Lie’s homemade treats are fantastic – a shot of Old Brown hits the spot after a cool morning’s start. Definitely an event to add to your winter calendar. This event has us returning year after year, we feel we have become part of the Unplugged family! Thank you Cape Country.

A fantastic multi-stage off-road event taking in some stunning routes, not all of which can be ridden by the public. The best 5 days on a mountain bike in the company of like-minded people, riding for the joy of it. This event both touches and gives back to the communities it passes through and sometimes emotions can’t be contained.
