The Powerade Kremetart One-Day Stage Race on June 5 is only a couple of weeks away and already excitement for this annual cycling event is starting to build up in and around Louis Trichardt.

This year will see the 21st Kremetart One-Day Stage Race – a race which has over the years established itself as one of the best cycling challenges in South-Africa. This is evident not only when one looks at the annual number of entries for the race from across the country, but also the number of top cyclists and national cycling teams the event attracts.

Every year there is something new or something to upgrade this prestigious cycling event, hosted by the P&L Hardware Cycling Club. Apart from the 175km stage race and 70km race, this year’s event will also boast the first ever Kremetart Mountain Bike Challenge, scheduled for Sunday, June 6. Here, participants will be able to chose from a 10km, 20km, 30km and 40km race – a race for every level of cyclist.

The annual 22km Fun Ride has also changed to a more “fun-filled” 12km race with no mountains.

“It will be the safest fun ride you will ever experience. The route is flat and a must for kids and those who have a bicycle, never ride it, and just want to experience the vibe of the Kremetart event,” say the organizers.

Building on its success of the past, the Kremetart Mike´s Kitchen Kiddies Race will once again take place a day prior to the main event on Friday, June 4 at Mike’s Kitchen at Makhado Crossing.
