With the announcement of transition to Level 1, government has eased restrictions to increase the limit on gatherings which positively impacts cycling events.

Following the announcement of Level 2 lockdown on Saturday 15 August 2020, government has now included provision for recreational sport. In terms of cycling, the introduction of Level 2 now allows recreational cyclists to attend events (with a temporary day license) and the opening up of all cycling disciplines.

As events begin to open up, we ask all cyclists who plan to participate, to be up to date with the COVID-19 safety procedures which will affect riders on race day.

Having worked closely with the Department of Sport, Art and Culture, CyclingSA can now give an update on the progress to enable our members to return to the sport of cycling and in particular, the approval of events under Level 3 lockdown.

Momentum Medical Scheme, Biogen and Dryland Event Management have taken the difficult decision to postpone the twelfth edition of the Momentum Medical Scheme Cape Pioneer Trek presented by Biogen. The seven-day stage race and it’s four-day adventure sister event were scheduled to take place in early September 2020. Due to the ongoing Covid19 pandemic, that will unfortunately no longer be possible.
