The 2012 BOXLEE Golovane X-Plore MTB race takes place on Sunday, April 1st, which provides Sani 2 C riders with a perfect opportunity to test themselves, their equipment and, probably most importantly, their teammates.
The whole idea around the Xplore is that it is a major/hard core training ride before the Sani for the teams or individuals.
With BOXLEE Packaging on board there will be well stocked water points as well as a few more additions to this unique MTB event.
A one-day, individual, two-man or three rider team event, the X-Plore is an 85km ride that takes place almost a month before Sani, giving riders a perfect chance to test themselves and their equipment and still have enough time to make changes. This year over and above the fitness-testing 85km race there is a popular a 50km race. There will be 4 water tables on the long route and 2 on the shorter route - Step Irrigation is our official water point sponsor.
The race course includes a combination of climbing, single track, Jeep track, district road and cane break riding (just like Sani) finishing on the superbly manicured routes of Holla Trails … this race is an event no Sani 2 C entrant should miss.
To avoid the heat, the 85km race will start at 6:30am and the 50km race at 7:00am, with registration opening from 5:15am
With Boxlee Packaging on board again as the naming sponsor, the event again will also be supporting a local school, Osizweni Primary School. |
