Julian Jessop and Bianca Haw rode away with overall honours at the Mandela Day MTB Dash, which concluded at the Nelson Mandela Capture Site in Howick today.
Stuart Marais had hoped his fourth start at the event would yield a winning result but he was pipped to the post by the young PYGA rider. Andrew Hill completed the top three.
Bianca Haw won the women’s category as she held off Tiffany Keep and Jeannie Dreyer.
