· 2 min read
If you like long sections of district roads with beautiful landscapes set to challenge your fitness – the Tip Trans MTB and Trail Run Cederberg Experience is for you!
If you’re up to it, join your fellow cyclists and runners on 1 September 2018 De Meul Sentrum, Citrusdal for the start of the race. With both a 105 km and 65 km MTB challenge, it’s ideal for riders who enjoy a bit of a challenge with a technical spin.
The ever-popular 45 km is still available for those who just want a great morning of riding. A 15 km Trail Run is there for athletes who prefer to explore this beautiful area on their feet.
The kiddies race will be available again this year, so bring the little ones! There’s also a brand new Race Venue with proper ablution facilities, a campsite, food stalls, craft beers, a kids play area and much more to ensure that you can thoroughly enjoy the weekend in true Citrusdal hospitality.

The Portrait of a South African Winemaker
In James Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Stephen Dedalus resolves to express himself "as freely as I can and as wholly as I can". Joyce's hero refuses to be just one thing. That same many-sided energy is increasingly being asked of the modern South African winemaker, who has to adopt different faces for different places.
Who will drink South African wine tomorrow?
Tomorrow’s wine drinker is already here, standing at the braai with a can in one hand and a phone in the other. South African wine still has time to join the occasion, although it may need to loosen its collar first.
Ice in the Chenin and other South African wine crimes
There is ice in the Chenin Blanc, Cap Classique in an ordinary wine glass and a bowl of curry waiting beside a bottle of something pink. By old wine standards, the afternoon is a small crime scene.
