Cape Epic is the world biggest mountain bike stage race up to this day. It takes riders through 658 km of South Africa’s Western Cape countryside with a cumulated vertical gain of 13,530 meters. The race attracts professional and ambitious amateur entrants from across the planet and is the only 8-day mountain bike stage race classed as hors catégorie by the world cycling federation UCI.
