I would like to extend a huge vote of appreciation to Peter and his team for coming on board and offering to host a round of the National Cup Series. Afriski and Kapoko Bike Park are renowned for their amazing trails with the African version of “antigrip”, and with Lift-access, and 5 Downhill Tracks to choose from are a worthy host for the SA Cup Series Event.”
