Sappi MTB: get ready to be challenged
It’s time for riders to get out their bikes for Mpumalanga’s not-to-be-missed annual Sappi Mankele MTB challenge, which takes place at Mankele tomorrow.
Mountain biking is one of the fastest growing sports in South Africa and the Sappi Mankele MTB Challenge is fast becoming a national event with riders participating from across the country.
In addition, the challenge has also been incorporated into the Mpumalanga Marathon Series, which is open to all mountain bikers from all provinces.
“Sappi’s plantations not only provide a critical renewable resource to help grow South Africa’s economy, but together with our conservation areas our land provides a fantastic resource for planned recreational activities,” says Sappi’s General Manager Forestry in Mpumalanga, Dietmar Schroeder.
All proceeds from the Sappi Mankele MTB Challenge will be donated to local charitable organisations, for the betterment of the community.
