Maxi Race Cape Winelands
BLACK EAGLE LATE ENTRIES AT REGISTRATION FROM 16:30!!!
MAXIRACE brings you the best in trail night racing!
Introducing the Brand New LEDLENSER DARK RACE SERIES presented by STANLEY, a 3-Part Trail Running Series hosted exclusively in Jonkershoek by MTO TRAILS and BALANCE COFFEE.
Each Race will offer a completely different route and challenge...
DARK RACE #1 - THE ROOIKAT: The Flowing Trail Night Race
DARK RACE #2 - THE BLACK EAGLE: The High Altitude for the Night Time Views
DARK RACE #3 - THE COBRA: The Flat and Fast Trail Race
THIS IS 'THE BLACK EAGLE'
The Black Eagle soars above the clouds to look down on the Stellenbosch lights. The best views are from the top, so the Black Eagle is perhaps the Jonkershoek resident who best knows every turn of every trail in the valley.
You will climb in this second Dark Race, but man, the views will be worth it! After making your way to the top, the downhill will be 'cruisey' and fun!
THE 7KM DOES NOT CLIMB! IT'S FLAT AND FUN!
