One lucky Origin Of Trails MTB Experience rider will take home an awesome Specialized Stumpjumper FSR ST to the value of R30\u00a0000 the weekend of Saturday, 24 and Sunday, 25 November 2018 compliments of the event\u2019s bicycle partner.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Origin of Trails MTB Experience is a great way of showcasing what Stellenbosch has to offer in terms of the trails and the beautiful landscapes,\u201d says Kate Whitehead, Marketing Coordinator at Specialized Bicycles Africa.\u00a0 \u201cAs it is a 2-day event, riders and spectators are encouraged to stick around and take in all that Stellenbosch has to offer. The fact that the event encourages riders to enjoy the experience as opposed to racing definitely levels the playing field and lifts the pressure, so the high stress levels can be replaced with high \u2018stoke\u2019 levels instead.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year we are especially excited to see how the inclusion of the Specialized Turbo E-bike category will be received by riders,\u201d continues Whitehead.\u00a0 \u201cWith the rise of the category globally it was only a matter of time before races incorporated it locally.\u00a0 We look forward to seeing this category grow in the future.\u00a0 We are also excited to be running a competition where one rider will take home a Specialized Stumpjumper FSR ST to the value of R30\u00a0000.\u00a0 The competition will take place on Day 1.\u00a0 We will post a riddle to social media.\u00a0 If correctly solved, riders will know where to take a photograph on route during Day 1.\u00a0 These photographs need to be shared to Instagram.\u00a0 Don\u2019t forget to tag @specializedza.\u00a0 The winner will be announced during prize giving after Day Two.\u201d<\/p>\n
