Cape Pioneer Trek - Part 1

Mossel Bay, South Africa

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mossel Bay on the East Cape coast plays host to the race for the first three nights... 

The bustling town’s modern history dates back to 1488 when Barthomeu Dias anchored in 

Munro’s Bay.

The point that presides over the campsite and race village at Milkwood Primary School forms 

the backbone of the first day’s test, a short sharp Prologue called Point pursuit... Steep 

road climbs, a rocky cliffside trail and boardwalk all make for a fast fun day... 

By way of a welcome, mother nature has played one of her hands on registration day...
