Introducing the Overberg Odyssey - 1 to 4 October 2026
Early Bird Entries @ R3900 - Limited to the first 50 Entries.
- 4 Days of the best Gravel you can imagine, through the beautiful Overberg.
- Budget Friendly: Make your own overnight plans: there are tons of guest house, hotels and camp sites available.
- Racing Orientated: With the lack of Road Stage Races in SA, we are looking to fill the gap for the Racing Snakes wanting a proper Tour! That said this is also a great opportunity for the weekend warriors to try their hand at some multi-day riding - there will definitely be beautiful roads, stunning views and lekker waterpoints to ensure everyone has a fantastic time!
- 80 to 100 Kilometers per Day
- CSA Sanctioned

A 4 Day Stage Race at the unbeatable price of R4900 per rider! That's right, for R4900 you get to race your heart out over the famous Overberg Gravel for 4 unforgettable days!
Included in your Entry:
- 4 Magical Days of the best Gravel Racing.
- Luggage Transport to each town, including tent and coolbox if you're camping
- Medical Support on Route.
- Fully stocked Waterpoints
- Access to bike wash - there will be a wash bay, with cleaning materials etc, at our Race Village, so you're welcome to wash your bike whenever suits you.
How luggage will work:
Each rider must bring 2 bags - a big bag for all luggage and a small backpack for overnight
- Your big bag & cool box (if you have one) will stay in the Race Village in our secure Luggage Store
- After each stage you will take out from your big bag, the items you need for that afternoon/evening and your race kit for the next day. You'll pack that into your small overnight bag and ride to your guest house.
- The next morning, you bring all your items back to the Race Village in your small overnight bag, and pack them back into your big bag - which we'll then transport to the next Race Village.
- In Swellendam our Race Village is 2km out of town, so its not a train smash if you forget something and need to ride back to fetch something from your big bag.
- In Witsand (where we stay for 2 nights) our race village is in Town.
Entries Open 1 May.
