#3: Big 5 MTB Challenge

In Episode 3 of Season 2 the Diverge Podcast we feature apreview of the Big 5 by Imbuko Wines and Canetsfontein, as well as the Groot Swem from Robben Island to Big Bay. The Big 5 MTB Challenge has grown into one of the country’s premier one-day mountain bike events, and this year it boasts not only a stellar elite field by R25 000 for the winning man and woman, plus R20 000 for the King and Queen of the Mountain winners. The race to the summit of the Cliffhanger will thus be as exciting as the race to the finish line on Imbuko Wine Estate. Then, looking a bit further ahead, I’ve signed up for the Groot Swem – or Big Swim. It is a 7.5 kilometre open ocean swim, across Table Bay, to raise money for the Start Well Foundation’s battle against childhood stunting.
