Classic Cycle Race
Carnival City to host one of the elite races for all road cyclists in Gauteng.
The 30th edition of the ever-popular Carnival City Macsteel National Classic Cycle Race will be held on February 23, just two weeks before the Argus. Carnival City and Macsteel continue their sponsorship of this magnificent event, which is again hosted by the Rotary Club of Germiston in conjunction with Germiston Wheelers.
The race is a seeding event for this year’s Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge and gives competitors a chance to ride the 160km, 120km, 103km or 65km event. With road safety in mind, rolling road closure will take place from 06:00 on the day of the event.
On request from CSA, and to start bringing the event in line with international distances, the Elite Men will ride 10km further on a new 160km route. The event is CSA sanctioned.
This event is a fun day out for the whole family, with 160km for the elites and a 65km to get the legs kicking.
Distances and Fees:
160km – R270
120km – R250
103km – R240
65km – R170
Once again, ChampionChip will be used to provide accurate timing and results for this event. All cyclists, including licensed cyclists, are required to make use of a ChampionChip. Those cyclists that do not have a chip can purchase one with their entry.
