Official Cape to Cape race package

Stress-free racing with a premium bike waiting at every start line. Cross the finish, hand us your bike, and enjoy your holiday while we prep it for tomorrow.

The package

A hassle-free race experience

Skip the bike wash and the late nights in the garage. More time enjoying your holiday, less time on maintenance.

Your personal pit crew

We collect your bike at the finish line so you can get straight into celebrating. While you eat and drink, we clean and prep it for the next stage.

More holiday, less maintenance

Spend your evenings relaxing instead of washing mud off your bike. We handle all the cleaning, servicing and prep between stages.

On-site at every stage

We're at the heart of each stage with your bike ready near the start and finish, plus replacement bikes on standby if anything goes wrong.

Race package FAQ

What's included in the rental package?+
A premium mountain bike, daily cleaning and servicing between stages, on-site mechanical support, replacement bikes on standby, and finish-line collection. One price covers all four stages — no hidden costs.
How does fitting and race-day transport work?+
We fit and test your bike on 14 October, transport it to the race each day from 15–18 October, and collect it at each finish. We handle final cleaning and servicing after racing, normally on 19 October. The Large Trek Rail is serviced after the final stage on 18 October. You do not need to arrange a separate pickup or return.
What if something breaks during a stage?+
We have replacement bikes on standby. If there's a major mechanical that can't be fixed on course, we'll get you back racing as quickly as possible.
Can I use my own pedals?+
Yes. Let us know if you're bringing clipless pedals or need flats. Drop them off before the event or at bike collection and we'll fit them for you.
Will the bike be set up for me?+
Yes. Saddle height, suspension settings, tyre pressure — we'll dial it in before Stage 1 and adjust throughout the event as needed.
When should I book?+
Book early to secure your preferred model and size. We check availability for the full event, and cancellation waitlists are available only for sold-out sizes. If you need help booking, contact us on WhatsApp.
Can I choose different rental dates?+
No. This is one fixed event package from 14–19 October 2026 (fitting, race support and servicing). If checkout shows different dates, contact us on WhatsApp before paying.
