Entries for the Bestmed Tour of Good Hope close on Friday, February 3, making this week your last chance to book a spot in South Africa’s premier road race.
The five-day event, presented by Scicon and the City of Drakenstein, takes place in the Cape Winelands from March 6 to 10, covering 490km in the Franschhoek-Paarl valley.
A quality field, including South Africa’s defending champion Stefan de Bod and international stars such as Karl Platt (Germany) and Christoph Sauser (Switzerland), will be on the start line.
La Paris Estate, which is situated about 8km from Franschhoek on the R301 road, will host the tour.
The race is one of the highlights of a busy month in South Africa’s racing season, which includes the Cape Town Cycle Tour (March 12) and the Cape Epic (March 19 to 26).
