This event offers 40 cyclists of any gender an opportunity to celebrate Women's Day whilst getting to know aspects of the Route's unique history from Muizenberg to Simon's Town.
The event is driven by clues with a feminine bias and cyclists will hunt down and uncover in the process historical attractions such as insignia, symbols, signs, a large rock, personalities, buildings, old hotels, old factories, gables, chimneys, fireplaces, streets, lanes and steps, post and letter boxes.
The cyclist with the most correct answers/highest score wins a weekend for two at De Noordhoek Hotel. There will be prizes for second and third places.
