WINDPOMP SJERRIE CHALLENGE

OP JOU BERGFIETS VAN HOOGWATER TOT BY FONTEIN WATER ON MOUNTAINBIKE FROM HIGHTIDE TILL LOWTIDE

EVENT MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES (Online entries @ EntryNinja)

The DREAM for the event was to celebrate the pure joy of fresh water and a healthy lifestyle. For this purpose we’ve chosen the weekend before Christmas in Stilbaai. The date for 2021 is the 2nd of January 2021. The WINDPOMP has been the symbol of hope for decades on farms throughout Southern Africa. I believe this small event can influence people to think differently about the future of our country. Small things can make a difference.

In terms of the marketing mix, we can confirm the following parties to be involved in the event;

  • Main sponsor, HESSEQUA Municipality.
  • PUTSTOP, the BEST STOP on a vlakte (Logistical Support and
    sponsor).
  • STABLES Outdoor Restaurant (End & Start Venue).
  • OK Foods (Water Points).
  • Lazer 4 You, Elmarie Grobbellaar, (Water points).
  • Kransfontein Olives, Dale & Jasinda Steyn (Product Sponsor).
  • GREAT TIME will present your results, Grevile Radock (Timing).
  • Entry Ninja will do the online registration (Registration).
  • FRONTIER Medix, Jacques Lourens (Medical Backup).

KAART | MAPS

Hierdie roete is die absolute ideale opsie om kinders en ouers besig te hou maar ook veilig te laat deelneem met ’n minimale impak op die verkeers departement. ’n Klein aanpassing moet aan die roete gemaak word om deur Julie se Baai te ry. Ons gebruik bestaande voetpaaie deur Pauline Bohnen met geen ekologiese impak op die reservaat.

Deelnemers ry om die Braak en dan agter “On the Rocks” vat hulle die stywe bult op na die vliegveld. Dit is die enigste klim gedeelte van die roete.
