LIVE | STAGE 6 | 2024 Absa Cape Epic

Steadfast in the UNTAMED

After a transfer to Stellenbosch allows for two full days of singletrack racing. Though teams should be warned, they will need to be steadfast in their resolve if they are to conquer the untamed. Stage 6 is no play day on the Simonsberg, it presents climbs aplenty across Rustenberg, Quoin Rock, Mauratie, Uitkyk, Knorrhoek and Morgenhof.

It does however also boast singletracks, both uphill and down, on most of those famous estates. Passing through Mauratie twice the bulk of the trails come back-to-back in a feast of Dirtopia’s best riding, before heading for Stellenbosch along Morgenhof’s new singletracks.

The Ida’s Valley trails provide a penultimate treat, followed by the stick of climbing Botmaskop and the carrot of The Doctor descent towards home. A final test of riders’ steadfast resolve, on the Berg Pad, ensures that Stage 6 is no easy day.

Massive appreciation to Absa Cape Epic crew and all involved for bringing this live event coverage to people around the world 🙏✌️

Another day of excellent coverage. To be perfectly honest, every year am still shocked that we're able to have such amazing coverage for a MTB marathon stage race. Marathon is mostly an afterthought when it comes to getting any type of coverage but every year we're treated to an amazing race. Thanks for making it free on YouTube as well. Bravo.

whoever wrote in chat that Schurter is giving up - that is not TRUE - he did not give up. He just realizes they probably can't beat the leaders - he is a realist - not a quitter

Can remember finishing here a few times. Power!

"After a transfer to Stellenbosch allows for two full days of singletrack racing". What does this sentence mean? I'm seeing miles of fireroad!

Must be extra harder on Nino's partners for this race because they probably feel extra mental stress worried about holding him up.

POV: When you search for 2024 races hoping to see things in 4k cinematic quality but the video quality ends up being worse than an old phone from a decade ago.

tutto in inglese non si capisce niente ! Almeno metteste delle scritte su chi conduce e i distacchi come nel ciclismo classico o a qualsiasi gara di MTB . Capisco l’assenza di interesse da parte della TV

Shame, karma got SCR for being cocky and bullish
